The Los Angeles Lakers hosted the Portland Trail Blazers at the Citizens Bank Business Arena in Ontario, California on Wednesday night in the second night of the back-to-back game. The Lakers came into the game trying to bounce back from a 114-108 loss at the hands of the Phoenix Suns in overtime Tuesday night. Kobe Bryant sat against the Blazers and will do so for the last game of the preseason against the Sacramento Kings. Here are tonight’s highlights:

Jordan Clarkson, you guys.

Lin/Davis have that weak side P&R down. Lin’s ability to pressure the lane line draws the big & opens up Davis’ dive for that lob.
