Notes:
-The Lakers are on a five game losing streak, but with the return of Larry Nance Jr. from injury, the team hopes he will break that streak with the offensive punch he brings to the game.
-After a tough loss to the Phoenix Suns, look for the Sixers to come out firing on all cylinders. But without Dario Saric playing (eye injury) the team will be slightly undermanned.
