Portland Trail Blazers vs Los Angeles Lakers Preview

Set to meet for the second time this season, the Portland Trail Blazers and Los Angeles Lakers will face off at Crypto.com Arena on New Year’s Eve. Their first meeting went the way of the Trail Blazers 105-90 on November 6 due in part to the absence of LeBron James for the Lakers. More recently, the Lakers fell 104-99 to Memphis at FedExForum despite James’ immense 37-point, 13-rebound, seven-assist, eight-triple (equal-career-high) display. The Lakers have now lost six of their last seven. Meanwhile, Portland fell 120-105 to Utah at home despite a pair of 32-point performances from Damian Lillard and Norman Powell. As a result, the Trail Blazers have now lost 12 of their last 13 in conference play.
