The Los Angeles Lakers may have lost against the Golden State Warriors on Friday night, and were honestly never really in the game, but don’t tell that to their recent G League call-up, Jemerrio Jones.
In his first extended burn since signing a deal with the Lakers for the rest of this season and a non-guaranteed second year, Jones shined amidst the chaos like a billboard-topping band playing as the Titanic sunk, showing admirable commitment to shining in his task. In one of the last games of the season, Jones wasn’t going to waste any opportunities to show he deserves to be on this level.
