Chargers News: Keenan Allen Shows Support for Lakers During Huge Game

Bolts WR showing love to the purple and gold

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen remains one of the top wide receivers in the league. He's coming off a 2022 season where he only played ten games due to a hamstring injury. 

However, he'll be set to have a big 2023 season and get back to where a fellow Los Angeles sports team is right now. The LA Lakers were in action on Tuesday night for a spot as the seventh seed in the Western Conference playoffs, and everyone in LA was tuned in, including the five-time pro bowler. 

Here is what Allen had to say about the big shot that gave the Lakers the lead late in the game. 

Let’s gooooo

Lakers guard Dennis Schröder hit a clutch corner three to give the LA the lead, and every Laker fan reacted like how Allen did above. 

The Chargers have been in LA since 2017 and are trying to accomplish what the Lakers have in the city of Los Angeles. It'll be hard to top the purple and gold, but a Super Bowl would be a step in the right direction. 

In order for the Bolts to get a Super Bowl, Keenan will need to play a huge role in that, and that will all start in 2023. The Lakers are playoff bound, and they will look to make a deep run; hopefully, the Chargers will be primed to do the same with their star players.
