The Los Angeles Lakers get their second crack at the Portland Trail Blazers in 2017, this time on their own turf in Southern California. C.J. McCollum put in some serious work on the Lakers in the previous loss, dropping 27 points. Evan Turner was the one putting the finishing touches on the LakeShow, though.
The Lakers have won back-to-back games since then, running the table of the visiting teams from Florida while looking focused on making the second half of the season mean something. That being said, few matchups mean more to the Lakers more than the remaining three contests against Portland.
