Bradley exited the game with 16 points, three rebounds, one assist and one steal. He was 7-of-9 from the field and 1-of-1 from deep. His contributions were critical as the Lakers beat the Spurs, 103-96, and extended their winning streak to five.
Bradley, who inked a two-year- $9.7 million deal over the summer, has slowly risen into one of the key pillars of the Lakers. He was brought to give the Purple and Gold a boost on defense, but so far, he has made his presence felt on the offensive end as well.
Bradley is currently averaging 9.6 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.4 steals. He's shooting 46.5 percent from the field and 31.3 percent from deep and is also almost automatic on mid-range shots.
Lakers fans need not worry. Bradley will not be out for long and will continue to showcase his stellar talent on both ends of the floor.
