Byron Scott Frustrated With Lakers Play
The Clippers opened Tuesday’s game against the Lakers on a 20-2 run, led by as much as 28 and rolled to a 103-81 win at Staples Center.
It marked the Lakers’ 61st loss of the season, tying for the most losses in franchise history with last season’s team, which posted a 21-61 record. Lakers coach Byron Scott expressed frustration with the way his team is playing considering these are the final games for Kobe Bryant, who has five games left and is retiring this summer after a 20-season NBA career.

A team that is expected to be prominent in the trade market picture, rival teams expect: The New Orleans Pelicans. The franchise is off to an uneven 5-10 start to the season. New Orleans has been receiving calls about the availability of Lonzo Ball and JJ Redick and has shown an openness to discussing trades around both with interested teams, sources tell The Athletic. A move would create a clearer pathway for young guards Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Kira Lewis in the Pelicans’ rotation.
