The Los Angeles Lakers first road trip of the season hasn’t exactly gone to plan, as they have lost the first three games of the trip, although all the losses came against Eastern Conference playoff caliber teams in the Boston Celtics, Washington Wizards and Milwaukee Bucks.
Their last chance to salvage the road trip before heading back to Los Angeles is Monday night when they take on the Phoenix Suns.
The Lakers beat the Suns earlier this season in Phoenix, but since then the Suns have undergone a complete makeover as they fired head coach Earl Watson and traded starting point guard Eric Bledsoe.
