Warriors Vs. Lakers Preview: Both Teams Shorthanded After Trade Deadline

The Los Angeles Lakers return home after a successful Grammy road trip in which they went 5-1 to host the Golden State Warriors. Both LeBron James and Stephen Curry got some big time reinforcements with moves made at the trade deadline, but will have limited rotations as those players aren’t yet able to debut just yet.

Of course the Lakers made the biggest move of the deadline in trading for Luka Doncic, but the team also added a promising young center in Mark Williams. The Warriors, meanwhile, traded for former Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler as both teams hope these moves push them towards contender status in a stacked Western Conference.
