Kentavious Caldwell-Pope continued his hot shooting
It looks like KCP is playing for his next contract. At least that was all the rage on social media during the game. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope brought the Lakers back with his hot 3-point shooting and never let up.

Kentavous Caldwell-Pope dropped 25 points on 8-for-14 shooting which included six shots from distance. For the last couple of weeks, he has worked with a shooting coach and it has worked out for him and the Lakers.
It seemed all night long, the Lakers would suck the defense in and kick the ball out to KCP for shot after shot. Every time the Hornets would make a run during the game, for the first three quarters, KCP would stop the run with a timely shot.
Caldwell-Pope has the touch from distance as of late. He is definitely one of the players that are on the list that the Lakers front office has to make a decision on this offseason.
