Not necessarily.

"She's dating one and having a fling with another."

Maybe that news made JC's game of 1-12 shooting and having the announcer say "Should've brought Brandon Ingram instead!" more understandable... or that game led to her actions of finding another.

Either way JC should be fine. He's tizzight with Swaggy so that means no shortage of club life socialites to hook up with.


She's definitely with AsapRocky. They just became official. Good for the Lakers.


Like I said man... 2 at the same time man. JC freaky like dat...

Kendall Jenner Parties With Jordan Clarkson After A$AP Rocky Dating Reports
Fri, July 29, 2016 7:22pm


Jordan's ex, Chanel Iman the Victoria Secrets model was engaged to Asap... so if Asap moved over to Jordan's new squeeze, that's some stuff. Hopefully JC keeps it together, good thing he's got an experienced Swaggy to give him perspective on this madness and it'll keep him focused.

Jordan Clarkson Is ‘Excited’ To See How Lakers Core Grows Together

Clarkson said that he’s just as eager to continue alongside Randle and Russell. They are cognizant of the mantle they’ve inherited

If he shoots it like that when wide open his percentage will go way up but if he shoots his traditional Terry Teagle jump shot its gonna be tougher to be consistent.

Posted in the 3pt shooters needed thread by fiendishoc:

FG% on wide open 3's:

Jordan Clarkson 47.3%
Stephen Curry 46.2%
Klay Thompson 45.5%
Jose Calderon 41.8%
D'Angelo Russell 40.9%
Lou Williams 40.4%
Kyle Korver 36.8%
Luol Deng 35.8%
Kent Bazemore 34.0%

Looks good to me!

Man his form still bugs me. I'm not sure what it is but it looks stiff in the upper body.

But man if he's making 15 30 footers in a row, who am I to complain

Not sure what to make of stats that say he shoots 30% and 47% when open but I did watch every game last season and in my opinion I believe if he takes a bit off the elevation when hes open it will greatly help him be more consistent shooting the 3. I could be wrong, its just a hunch. I remember him tailing off regularly in the second half of games. I think its because as the games get into the second half the legs get tired and those full blown jump shots become harder.

That's a blast from the past, but I don't see Terry Teagle in his shot at all. Teagle had a higher release, that was why Teagle often posted up players and faded away.

Yup. JC's form is closer to Byron's than Teagle's IMO.

Really looking forward to seeing him in the new system. He does a good job of setting & using screens, cutting, and spotting up, all of which bode well for next season. I think he's really gonna thrive in this style.

That's impressive. He was our best 3pt shooter at 38% until the ankle injuries. Hopefully, he can return to form.

Lol, I'm just busting your chops. You give me (bleep) for using slang and half of the time I need Rosetta Stone to decipher your posts.

Re-read what you actually posted. I got your point, but damn, dude.

If he can shoot 38% for the season this year we are going to be better than people think. Clarkson is hard to stop when the 3 ball is dropping.
