The Los Angeles Lakers turned to a small-ball game plan in Game 4 against the Houston Rockets, benching JaVale McGee and Dwight Howard.
And due to the absence of the injured Dion Waiters, second-round draft pick Talen Horton-Tucker was surprisingly put into the game in the second quarter. Horton-Tucker played just seven minutes, but demonstrated in that short time why the Lakers have been so high on him throughout the season.
Gathering five points, two rebounds and two steals, the rookie put his mark on the game, as L.A. increased their lead from four to 13 during his minutes.
