Lakers stun Warriors 112-95 for Golden State’s 6th loss
LOS ANGELES >> Jordan Clarkson scored 25 points, D’Angelo Russell added 21 and the Los Angeles Lakers stunned the Golden State Warriors 112-95 on Sunday, handing the defending NBA champions just their sixth loss of the season, all on the road.
Kobe Bryant added 12 points in helping the Lakers earn their biggest victory in a downtrodden farewell season for Bryant, who spent the fourth quarter on the bench resting his aching right shoulder.
Stephen Curry led the Warriors with 18 points on a day when they were awful offensively. Klay Thompson added 15 points, but the Splash Brothers were a combined 1 of 18 from 3-point range. In all, the Warriors missed 26 of 30 attempts from long range.
The loss snapped Golden State’s seven-game winning streak and was their first since a 32-point blowout defeat at Portland on Feb. 19.
