Jordan Clarkson's extra shooting practice pays off with career highs against Timberwolves

While Jordan Clarkson was in the middle of a one-for-nine shooting performance Tuesday against the Clippers, he wandered by the bench and told his coach his shot was broken.

For the next two days, Clarkson spent extra time shooting, trying to fix it. That paid off Friday during the Lakers 130-119 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Clarkson scored a career-high 35 points, making eight of 10 three-pointers, which was also a career high, as were his 13 made field goals. He became the third Laker since 1983 with at least eight three pointers in 10 or fewer attempts.
