Lakers vs Kings final score 122-99: Jabari Brown explodes for 32 in Lakers 61st loss

Jabari Brown set a new career high of 32 points as the Lakers cruised through one final blowout loss on their way to the offseason.

The Los Angeles Lakers fell to the Sacramento Kings 122-99 Wednesday night in one of the more meaningless games, if not in NBA history, than certainly in Lakers' history. With rookie sensation Jordan Clarkson shelved with an ankle injury, there was little of note on the court to watch as the Lakers failed to avoid their worst record in franchise history.

The Lakers injury problems led to them attempting a zone defense for much of the first quarter to mitigate their communication issues and simplify things.
