LA Lakers will look to extend their undefeated start of the season against the Suns
The LA Lakers will be on the road against the Phoenix Suns on Monday night. The Lakers have had a fabulous start to the season and are undefeated in three games currently. On the other hand, the Suns have not had a bad start themselves. They have won two games and lost one so far.
It is worth noting that this is the second game between the two sides in the space of three days. Their last meeting came at the Crypto.com Arena when Anthony Davis led the way by dropping 35 points. The Lakers won the game 123-116.
In their last outing, the LA Lakers went on a 21-0 scoring run in the fourth quarter to overturn a 14-point deficit and roll past the Sacramento Kings. Having shown incredible resilience, more of the same is expected from them against the Suns. As far as the injury report from the team goes, after missing out on the last two games, Cam Reddish is back with the squad.
However, Christian Wood (knee), Jarred Vanderbilt (feet), and Christian Koloko (blood clots) all remain out for the Lakers as they work their way back from their respective injuries.
Predicted Starting 5: Russell, Reaves, Davis, Hachimura, LeBron
Most recently, the Suns took on the Dallas Mavericks in what was their first home game of the season. They marked a dominant display and won the game 114-102. As they kick off the season in decent form, the Suns will certainly look to take get the job done at home against the undefeated Lakers.
