The Los Angeles Lakers started their preseason out with a game against the Golden State Warriors. Anthony Davis dazzled in his debut by putting up a double-double in limited minutes. LeBron James and the rest of the Lakers performed well, and they pulled out a win over the Warriors. Now the question is who will the regular season starters be? Avery Bradley got the start at the point guard position over Rajon Rondo, and JaVale McGee got the start at center over Dwight Howard. Head Coach Frank Vogel said the starting lineup will be fluid throughout the season and preseason.
