Dennis Schroder's Viral Tweet After Lakers Blow Out Warriors
On Saturday evening, the Los Angeles Lakers blew out the Golden State Warriors by a score of 127-97 in Game 3 of their second-round playoff series at Crypto.com Arena.
They lost Game 2 (127-100 in San Francisco), so the Lakers did a good job of responding and protecting their home floor.
Eight-time All-Star Anthony Davis led the way with a game-high 25 points to go with 13 rebounds, three assists, three steals and four blocks in 33 minutes of playing time.
Veteran point guard Dennis Schroder had 12 points, one assist and one steal in 20 minutes off the bench.
After the game, he sent out a tweet with a video that is getting a lot of traction on Twitter.
In the clip, Schroder threw an alley-oop to Davis.
Schroder captioned his video: "👀#LakersWin"
The Lakers played a fantastic game and forced the Warriors to commit 19 turnovers (in comparison to their 12).
In addition, the Lakers shot 52.5% from the field and 48.4% from the three-point range, while the Warriors only shot 39.6% from the field and 29.5% from the three-point range.
Game 4 will be back in Los Angeles on Monday night, so they will have an excellent chance to take a commanding 3-1 lead in the series before going back to San Francisco for Game 5 on Wednesday.
Schroder has been one of the team's most important role players, and averaged 12.6 points, 2.5 rebounds and 4.5 assists per contest during the regular season.
