James Worthy Made The 2nd Quarter After Being Released From Jail

Many of the Lakers’ players did not know what happened to Worthy until earlier in the day when they learned of his charges.

Worthy’s bail was set at $500, and after posting it, he was released. Most of the Lakers thought he would fly back to Los Angeles after posting bail. However, Worthy had other plans — he wanted to play.

As long as he was there, the Lakers played their superstar. There was 11:23 left in the second quarter, and when he showed up to play, the crowd went wild.

Lakers’ legendary point guard, Magic Johnson, had a few words to say after the game, following up on Worthy’s showing up to play after being arrested.
