With his 19 points in Monday’s 107-101 victory over Utah at Staples Center, sixth-man Jamal Crawford surpassed the 15,000-point plateau for his career. He did it while playing with bruised ribs sustained in Friday’s victory over the Lakers.

Crawford was stoked.

“That was really cool,” Crawford said. “I didn’t know, I guess coming into the NBA, you are not really thinking like that. You are just trying to establish yourself and stick (in the league), honestly. I have seen so many guys come and go, and I didn’t get normal minutes until my third or fourth year in the NBA.”

Crawford, 34, now has 15,003 career points. He has a career scoring average of 15.6.
