After a tough Opening Night loss to the Utah Jazz, the Los Angeles Lakers will be hoping to bounce back on Friday night in their Home Opener.
The Lakers certainly didn’t play bad against the Clippers, but there were certainly some things that needed to be worked on. One of the glaring issues for the Lakers was the lack of scoring punch off the bench.
While the Clippers have one of the best scorers coming off the bench in the NBA in Lou Williams, the Lakers bench was outscored 60-19. This is a wide margin and one of the reasons why the Lakers were unable to defeat the Clippers.
