The Los Angeles Lakers are coming off of arguably their best performance of the season. With tons of controversy surrounding the team after the comments made about Luke Walton by LaVar Ball, the Lakers ran the Atlanta Hawks off the floor.
Now they look to build off that performance and climb out of the Western Conference cellar by picking up a win over the Sacramento Kings. The Kings have lost four of their last five and are on the second night of a back-to-back, blowing a big second half lead to the San Antonio Spurs on Monday.
In theory, that would make this a very winnable game for the Lakers, but nothing is guaranteed with this team.
