The Los Angeles Lakers have begun to find their identity on the defensive end and look to continue their road dominance when they take on the Oklahoma City Thunder for the first time during the 2020-21 season.
The Lakers can improve to 7-0 on the road to begin the season, which would be a new franchise record for the best start away from home.
Much like last season, the Thunder is overachieving with a roster that was widely expected to be going through a rebuild. Oklahoma City is 5-5 through 10 games and are currently within a half-game of the eighth spot in the Western Conference standings.
