After a double-digit loss to the Milwaukee Bucks, the Los Angeles Lakers must quickly move on as they embark on a seven-game road trip, starting with a match against De’Aaron Fox and the resurging Sacramento Kings, who have won five of their last six.
The Lakers and Kings faced off earlier this season just before the All-Star break, which came down to the wire. Ultimately, Los Angeles missed several layups near the end to win the game, falling 123-120.
In that game, LeBron James didn’t play because of ankle soreness, but he’s also out today as he continues to nurse a high ankle sprain.
