LAS VEGAS — Josh Hart spent the offseason focusing on improving his ball handling and jump shooting. Because of those skills, he is the summer league MVP frontrunner and the Lakers are heading to the quarterfinals.
Hart led the way once again in an 82-69 win over the LA Clippers, putting up 20 points, six rebounds and pairs of steals and blocks.
He started the game shooting just 1-of-6 from the field, but then sunk six of his next seven attempts.
Hart gashed the Clippers with his handle, making three driving layups and a couple of pick-and-roll 3-pointers.
