Deep Dive on Lakers Social Media Posts After Losses Goes Viral

The Lakers lost their 43rd game of the season on Sunday night after blowing a double-digit lead to the Pelicans.

LeBron James injured his ankle in the second quarter, but played through the pain to post a game-high 39 points. Los Angeles is clinging to the No. 10 seed with eight games remaining, just one game ahead of the Spurs for the final play-in spot.

But this story isn’t about Los Angeles’s playoff hopes. It’s about the Lakers’ social media team, which has some explaining to do thanks to some deep internet digging from internet sleuth Kenny Beecham.
