What to Know
The Los Angeles Lakers have been on the wrong side of a one-way rivalry with the Los Angeles Clippers and are hoping to record their first win since July 30 of last year. The Lakers will take on Los Angeles at 10 p.m. ET on Friday at Staples Center after having had a few days off. Los Angeles is out to stop a four-game streak of losses at home.
Los Angeles made easy work of the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday and carried off a 117-92 victory. The oddsmakers were on Los Angeles’ side, but they didn’t give the squad enough credit as the margin was unexpectedly wide. Their power forward Anthony Davis did his thing and had 25 points along with seven boards.
Meanwhile, the Clippers came up short against Sacramento on Wednesday, falling 124-115. Los Angeles was down 99-76 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from. Small forward Terance Mann (19 points), shooting guard Luke Kennard (19 points), and center Ivica Zubac (17 points) were the top scorers for Los Angeles. Ivica Zubac’s performance made up for a slower game against the New Orleans Pelicans on Monday.
The Lakers suffered a grim 118-94 defeat to Los Angeles when the two teams previously met in May. Maybe Los Angeles will have more luck at home instead of on the road? Watch the contest and check back on CBS Sports for all the details.
