Preview: Hawks continue road trip with matchup vs. Lakers
The Atlanta Hawks (17-20) will take on the Los Angeles Lakers (20-19) as they continue their road trip following Wednesday night’s win over the Sacramento Kings. The Hawks moved to 9-11 on the road this season with the win, and they will be facing a Lakers team that is 13-10 at home so far this season.
The Lakers have sputtered this season between various absences to key players, both due to Covid as well as injuries. Anthony Davis remains out with a knee injury, while LeBron James and Russell Westbrook have continued to try to form chemistry together despite Westbrook not exactly being a great fit with the Lakers to this point.
