Lakers 111 vs. 132 Clippers summary: stats and highlights | NBA

Update:
The Los Angeles Clippers won their fifth straight game after taking down a slumping Los Angeles Lakers side on Thursday night from the Crypto.com Arena.

The Los Angeles Clippers won the fourth and final intercity rivalry game against the Lakers in a game between two teams going in opposite directions. Reggie Jackson led the way with 36 points in the 132-111 victory.

Clippers continue their hot streak

The Clippers came into the night rolling having won four straight while the Lakers limped into Thursday’s game on the heels of a three game losing streak.

It was no secret that both teams were without a handful of superstars, but the Clippers have been getting used to life without Kawhi Leonard and Paul George while the Lakers are having trouble coping to life with Anthony Davis on the bench.

The Lakers offense struggled for much of the night without a center, and LeBron James was again asked to fill in down low which can take away from his ability to create off the dribble and the Clippers took advantage of that, especially in the second half.

Clips overcome Zubac foul trouble

They say it’s a game of runs it was never more evident than tonight in LA. Ivica Zubac got into some foul trouble early on and the Lakers pulled ahead. Reggie Jackson and back up big man Isaiah Hartenstien lifted the home side who ended the first quarter with a 9-0 run to take the 36-31 lead going into the second 12 minutes.

The lead was stretched out all the way to 17 before the Lakers came back to life right before the half. LeBron James and Russell Westbrook came roaring back to close the gap to just three after a 14-0 to head into the break.

LeBron and the Lakers were victims of terrible timing after cutting the lead to 66-63 at half. They lost all of the momentum they built at the end of the second quarter by coming out of the locker rooms flat to start the final half.

LAC's third quarter run sunk Lakers

After exchange a basket a piece to start the third quarter it was the Clippers turn to go on a run, and the 23-0 spurt would be the final blow to the Lakers chances at stopping their losing streak.

The Clippers cruised to victory in the fourth quarter, as Reggie Jackson was given a standing ovation by the Crypto.com Arena crowd after a 36 point, 8 rebound and 9 assist game.

Jackson and the Clippers continue to climb up the Western Conference while the Lakers are quickly falling down the ladder. They are still in Play-In positioning, but Frank Vogel’s side looks lost without Anthony Davis down low.
