The LA Lakers left a lot of doubts after the two losses in the California Classics, but they have started with the right step in the Summer League by defeating the Warriors

Not only in the Western Conference Semifinals, the Lakers defeated the Golden State Warriors, but now their younger versions had a similar outcome, as the Lakers defeated the Warriors this Friday night.

One of the players that has been harshly criticized has been Cole Swider, who has a two-way contract with the team, as he is known to be a great shooter but almost nothing else.

While there's still a lot of room for Swider to improve, he gave an epic response to his detractors with his last night's performance against the Warriors.

Cole scored 19 points, being 7/14 FG and 5/8 from 3. His shooting is excellent; he needs to learn to defend better to find a spot in coach Darvin Ham's rotation next season.

The young Laker that felt like Austin Reaves

Not only Cole Swider had a great night against the Golden State, but Max Christie was, again, the standout performer for the team. Christie had such an impressive performance that the crowd heard MVP chants. In the post-game interview, Christie said, "I felt like Austin."
