The Los Angeles Lakers are looking to extend their four-game winning streak as they return to Staples Center to host the New Orleans Pelicans.
Coming off of a dominant road trip with two blowout wins against the Houston Rockets and another against the Oklahoma City Thunder, L.A. meets the Pelicans for the first time this season.
New Orleans is led by Brandon Ingram, who is averaging 23.8 points this season, and Zion Williamson, who is averaging 21.9 points. The Pelicans’ supporting cast consists of additional former Lakers Lonzo Ball and Josh Hart.
New Orleans also underwent a roster overhaul during the offseason, bringing in the likes of Eric Bledsoe, Steven Adams and JJ Redick.
