The defending champion Los Angeles Lakers have had their struggles in the early season, they’re averaging 112.2 points per game ranking 18th in the NBA in scoring offense. They have been able to do so efficiently shooting 48.3% from the field, 5th in the NBA.The Lakers are of course led by the duo of Lebron James and Anthony Davis, both are superstars and although Los Angeles hasn’t looked in form yet, that star-power is no doubt still there. Lebron is leading the Lakers in scoring with 25.8 and assists with 8.1 per game. Davis will not play as he nurses a calf injury and that will no doubt be a problem for the Lakers against a solid big man in Rudy Gobert.
