The Los Angeles Lakers sure didn’t have long to savor their 17th NBA title.
Little more than two months after the Lakers locked up the 2020 crown with a Finals win over the Miami Heat, they were back to the grind in a 116-109 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on the opening night of the 2020-21 campaign on Tuesday.
Paul George led the Clippers, less than two weeks after signing a four-year contract extension worth a reported $226 million.
