Tickets for Thursday’s Game 3 of the NBA Western Conference Finals at Staples Center were as low as $77 on StubHub Wednesday afternoon. Seats for a potential Game 5 in Phoenix, meanwhile, were starting at $242 for upper level baseline seats.

The Clippers answered with a three from Reggie Jackson and then a jumper from Paul George to lead 75-74.
As skilled at strumming the strings of a guitar as he is at shredding the fibers of a basketball net, Robert Woodard II is a man of many talents, and an unusually quick, willing learner.
He was the valedictorian of his graduating class, a Junior National Honor Society member and a two-time recipient of his high school’s Principal Student of the Year award.
He needed only a handful of bass guitar lessons and tips from his choir director before teaching himself more complex chords.
He performed in middle school plays and covered Motown tunes at a high school dance, before dabbling in the drums and piano. He’s spent many nights studying the riff techniques of John Mayer and Tom Misch on YouTube, and at one point, deliberated starting a band with a close friend.
