After losing two of three games, the Lakers earned an 11th seed in the NBA's Las Vegas championship tournament.
The Lakers will face the 0-3 Dallas Mavericks (22nd of 24 teams) on Wednesday at 5:30 p.m. PDT at the Thomas & Mack Center.
With a victory, the Lakers move on to play the NBA's Development League squad (6th seed) at 3:30 p.m. Thursday.
A loss to the Mavericks would push the Lakers' next game back to Friday at 3 p.m. in the Cox Pavilion, against either the Washington Wizards (20th) or Utah Jazz (13th).
If the Lakers do advance past Dallas, and continue to win, they'll play Saturday and Sunday at 3 p.
