Lakers Vs. Raptors Preview: L.A. Looks To Take Down Another Eastern Conference Opponent

The Los Angeles Lakers moved their record to 2-2 Wednesday night when they came back to beat the Washington Wizards in overtime.

Lakers forward Brandon Ingram led the way with 15 second-half points, including the game-tying tip-in layup with 0.7 seconds remaining to send the game to overtime. Lakers head coach Luke Walton praised Ingram, saying that he is developing into the team’s closer.

Things don’t get easier for the Lakers Friday night, as they host another Eastern Conference playoff team in the Toronto Raptors, who hold the same 2-2 record as the Lakers on the season.
