*GAME ARCHIVE: Los Angeles Lakers #2WayPlayer Gary Payton ll (28p, 7r, 7a) led the South Bay Lakers over the L.A. Clippers-affiliate Agua Caliente Clippers (2/23/18).
The South Bay Lakers fought until the end, but could not come away with a victory as they lost to the Sioux Falls Skyforce, 123-113, on Saturday night. Gary Payton II came off the bench with 26 points, nine rebounds and four steals for the Lakers (24-15), but it wasn’t enough for South Bay.
Thomas Bryant has been the most efficient player in the G-League, and has been the most efficient roll man, transition player, scorer on putbacks, and scorer at the rim (on non post ups).
Ivica Zubac has been the most efficient post player in the G-League
Gary Payton II has struggled in LA for both teams. He’s had a couple nice games, but overall is in the 12th and 17th percentiles by his points per possession on offense and defense for the Lakers, and is in the 19th and 16th percentiles during his time on the South Bay Lakers.
