Lineup Notes
Lakers — As is tradition, Anthony Davis enters this game with a bit of a question mark. It’s a very small question mark. He’s definitely expected to play but it’s worth noting that AD was poked in the eye in a scrimmage a week ago and was held out as a precaution. The Lakers will also be without Avery Bradley (NWT) and Rajon Rondo (hand surgery).
Clippers — The Clips are without a handful of key rotation players to start the seeding round. Lou Williams (NWT) won’t play in the first two games while in quarantine. Patrick Beverley and Montrezl Harrell have also not joined the team after leaving the bubble due to personal reasons. If all three are out, the Clippers will need role players like Reggie Jackson, Joakim Noah and JaMychal Green to step up. Beverley is being listed as questionable.
