The L.A. Clippers are on a three-game winning streak after beating the Lakers 120-115 on Monday night.

Arguably the biggest reason for that win was Lou Williams, who dropped 42 points along with four 3-pointers on his former team, including 14 in the fourth quarter to seal a close victory. Austin Rivers, who has manned the point guard position with Patrick Beverley and Milos Teodosic sidelined in injuries, had a solid game himself with 19 points, six rebounds and eight assists.

But if you asked model Melissa Stetten which of the two she'd rather have on the team, she won't hesitate on her answer, as evidenced by a tweet she posted during Monday's game.

Given how well Williams played Monday night, her thoughts aren't so far-fetched. Head coach Doc Rivers said after the game Williams “saved us.”

But the head coach's son was a big part of why the Clippers won that game. And it's a little suspect to believe that Williams is the best basketball player she has ever seen. She must have heard of LeBron James at some point.

Still, when anyone drops 42 points in an NBA basketball game, that's grounds for some hyperbole.

But that should stop when discussing the notion of trading Austin Rivers. He's making $11 million this year, and has a player option for $12.65 million next year. He's a solid, young player, but might be just a tad overpaid for what he brings to the table on the basketball court.

At this point, Austin Rivers is fine where he is, and the Clippers really need him with their de facto point guards out. Teodosic is on the mend, but has not shown signs that his return is imminent.
