Los Angeles Lakers: Top 5 shooting guards of the 2010 decade

4. Jordan Clarkson 2014-18

Jordan Clarkson just like Young was up-and-down in his Lakers career. But one thing he did provide was consistency. The Lakers teams he played on were very bad but he posted decent numbers on good splits.

Clarkson struggled on the defensive end as well. According to advanced stats, his best defensive rating came in 2017-18 where he had a 105.3 rating. He played in 53 games that season before being traded to the Cavaliers.

His defense was a liability but his offense was a bright spot. He also had a lot of volume like Young, but he always provided better consistent shooting splits. He always was around 44/33/80 shooting splits and was usually good for 15 points per night.

His offensive rating was usually around 104, which is below average in the NBA. Just like Young, he played on some really bad teams so that factors into his advanced stats as well.

Since he provided more consistency and was with the Lakers longer he lands at number four. If we could place a tie, he and Young would be grouped together, as they were basically the same exact player.
