The Los Angeles Lakers return home to Staples Center after a demanding seven-game road trip, but as they prepare to battle Jayson Tatum and the Boston Celtics, they’ll receive support from the crowd as fans will be in attendance for the first time this season.
The Lakers’ injury report heading into the contest is just as crammed as it has been lately. Andre Drummond (toe), Kyle Kuzma (calf), Wesley Matthews (Achilles), Dennis Schroder (pelvis contusion) and Marc Gasol (hamstring) are all probable, while Markieff Morris (ankle) is questionable after missing the previous game.
For the Celtics, Robert Williams III is questionable with knee soreness and guard Evan Fournier (health and safety protocols) is out.
