The Los Angeles Lakers face the tall task of trying to surpass the Portland Trail Blazers in the Western Conference standings to avoid the dreaded play-in tournament. Luckily, they have a relatively light schedule to end the season.
But first, Anthony Davis and company have to get past the red-hot New York Knicks fresh off of a big win of their own.
The last time the Lakers faced the Knicks this season, Frank Vogel was without Davis and LeBron James. Julius Randle was incredible, posting 34 points and 10 rebounds in a 111-96 Lakers loss.
