As the Lakers returned to their locker room trailing by six at intermission, Alex Caruso had a request for air-guitar celebration aficionado Lance Stephenson.
“At halftime walking into the tunnel, I told Lance to tune up the guitar, because I felt it was a little off,” Caruso said. “Obviously we were tuned up in the second half, making some shots.”
Caruso and co. rocked STAPLES Center like they were on a world tour. He ignited for 32 points and 10 rebounds — both career-highs — and was clutch down the stretch in the Lakers’ 122-117 win over the LA Clippers.
