Lonnie Walker accomplished a feat last reached in Lakers history by Kobe Bryant exactly 26 years ago

Thanks to an unexpected late-game surge by Lonnie Walker IV, the Los Angeles Lakers took a convincing 3-1 series lead against the Golden State Warriors.

The 24-year-old wing managed to score 15 points (6-9 FG, 1-3 3P, 2-2 FT) in the fourth quarter during the victory in Los Angeles. This performance marked the first time a Lakers reserve notched at least 15 points during the fourth quarter of a postseason game since Kobe Bryant did as much in 1997.
