The Los Angeles Lakers bounced back from a disappointing Day 1 in the second annual California Classic against the Golden State Warriors, 100-90.
It did not take long for the Warriors to find their rhythm on offense due to a hot start from Malachi Richardson. The former No. 22 pick in the 2016 NBA Draft hit a couple of early three-pointers to help give them a double-digit lead midway through the first quarter.
The Lakers were finally able to respond thanks to the efforts of Zach Norvell Jr. once again. The former Gonzaga guard almost singlehandedly managed to alleviate the hot start from Golden State by hitting all three of his shots for eight points to bring his team within one at the end of the opening period.
