Jordan Clarkson hits half-court buzzer beater vs Thunder (Video)
By Jack Crosby
Jordan Clarkson made sure the Lakers finished the first half in good shape with this amazing shot.
One night after a crushing loss to the Sacramento Kings, things are not getting any easier on Friday night as they take on none other than the Oklahoma City Thunder. If this team wants even a prayer of coming away with the win in this one, they’ll need to make all the big shots they’re gonna take.
Well, someone was out answering the prayers of Jordan Clarkson.
As the first quarter was coming to a close, Clarkson banked in this half-court buzzer beater to make sure that the Lakers would only be down four after one quarter of play.

That. Bank. Is. Open!
Again, that’s a shot in this one that could come back to be a factor down the road here in this game. In the loss to the Kings, we saw that this team, especially the youngsters, have some fight in them so a shot like that could give them a lot of momentum the rest of the way in this one.
We’re a long way from this one being over, but Clarkson coming away with the play of the game here would not be a surprise.
