​The Los Angeles Lakers beat the Los Angeles Clippers 99-85 on Tuesday, July 14, in their third game of Las Vegas Summer League.After the game, the Lakers are now officially undefeated through their first three games on the back of stellar play from Adou Thiero and Cameron Carr.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThe success in Vegas is down to quality scouting; Carr was taken with a very late first-round pick, while Thiero came on a purchased second-rounder.Additionally, undrafted free agent Arthur Kaluma has been superb at scoring, while AK Okereke looks to be an inguing layer on a two-way contract.Mar 3, 2026; Los Angeles, California, USA; Los Angeles Lakers head coach JJ Redick at a press conference at the Crypto.com Arena.

He also collected six rebounds.pic.twitter.com/8W7K76MLfj— Raj C. (@RajChipalu) July 15, 2026He added a steal and a block to his name as well. Thiero is someone who projects as a wrecking ball on defense, providing energy, and cutting to the basket as a lob threat.His next step in terms of development remains staying under control on both ends and playing with more poise, allowing his energy and size to impact the game naturally.Feb 10, 2026; Waco, Texas, USA; Baylor Bears guard Cameron Carr (43) during warmups before the game against the BYU Cougars at Paul and Alejandra Foster Pavilion.
