The Los Angeles Lakers are 3-0 in the In-Season Tournament and are looking to go undefeated into the next stage and advance as the first place of the West Group A by beating the Utah Jazz in tonight's game.

To do so, the  Lakers will be facing the second place of the Group, the Utah Jazz against a familiar face that has been balling in his last five games with his team.

Jordan Clarkson in his last 5 games has been averaging: 29.6 PPG, 4.4 APG, 3.6 RPG, 51% FG, 30 % from 3, and 92% FT, he has been flying under the radar but tonight could be dangerous for LA Lakers goal of making it undefeated to the next round of the new competition.

For the Lakers, LeBron James is still listed as questionable but he has been shooting 40% on 3s, which will be important for tonight's game, so the team fans are hoping to see him on the court.

The Lakers' shooting is still bad despite some player having improved their efficacy

LeBron is shooting 40% on 3s, Rui, Reaves, DLo are 40%+ in November. Why are the Lakers still 26th in 3p%? Bad Nov. for some typically good shooters: Prince: 19%, Wood: 30%, Christie: 18%, Davis: 0% (3 attempts). The good news? Nothing lasts forever and the team could bounce back at any moment.
