NBATuesday, 02 April 2024 at 17:00
On a Tuesday day in the NBA where up to nine games will be played, Toronto Raptors and Los Angeles Lakers will face each other in a crucial game for the Los Angeles Lakers, as their main rivals will face each other. LeBron James and Bruce Brown will be the stars of the game, as the Canadians will have to face each other due to the loss of the Canadians.
The Lakers will be the visitors on a very important night for them. The Los Angeles team is currently 9th in the Western Conference with a 42-33 record, ahead of the Golden State Warriors (10th with 40-34), who will play today against the Dallas Mavericks (5th with 45-29), and behind the Sacramento Kings (8th with 43-31), who will also play today against the Los Angeles Clippers (4th with 47-27).
The Raptors, for their part, come into the game plagued by injuries. Bruce Brown will be their most prominent player, resting their few stars who are not injured. The Canadian franchise has long since thrown in the towel on this season. They are currently 12th in the Eastern Conference with a 23-51 record and a woeful streak of 13 consecutive losses.
