NBA: tragic Westbrook, derby goes to LA Clippers
Regular season start with the brakes on for the yellow-and-whites
On the night the derby between LA Clippers and LA Lakers was played. The success went to the former who won 103-97. As many as six players in double figures in the ranks of the Clippers (14 for Leonard). In the Yellow Jacket, 25 points for Davis, 20 for James and only two for a disastrous Westbrook (0/11 shooting in 27′ of play).
Compounding this defeat, the LA Lakers are still winless at this start of the season (0-2). To be highlighted, in the other contest of the night, the Bucks’ success against the 76ers: 90-88 the final (close comeback, in the fourth period, by Philadelphia). Antetokounmpo finished with 21 points, 13 rebounds and eight assists. On the other side, a 31-point Harden was not enough.
