The shorthanded Lakers have a tough task ahead of them as they face the Philadelphia 76ers for the last time in the regular season. If L.A. wants to snap their current two game losing streak, they’ll have to play a near perfect game against the Eastern Conference’s fifth seeded team, who despite multiple injuries to their key players, have played relatively well as of late.
Of course, a huge reason why the Sixers are having a pretty decent season is because of Joel Embiid who is having another MVP campaign type of season, averaging a career-high 33.
