No one was injured in the scuffle. Frustration has built up for Los Angeles over the course of this long season where they will find themselves in the lottery once again.
It was nice to see the Laker players stick up for one another after Monroe pushed Young. Los Angeles took on the Cleveland Cavilers last night and fell 125-120.
They will take on the Clippers on Tuesday night. As more information surfaces on the Lakers and their news we will keep you up to date.
