The New Orleans Pelicans take on the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night at 9:30 PM. Both teams (!) feature lottery picks; second overall Brandon Ingram for the Lakers and sixth overall Buddy Hield for the Pelicans. Additionally early second round picks Ivica Zubac (32nd) and Cheick Diallo (33rd) are expected to play.
The Lakers will trot out a very good roster around Ingram. D'Angelo Russell (2015 - 2nd overall), Larry Nance Jr. (2015 - 27th overall), and Anthony Brown (2015 - 34th overall) all logged significant minutes for Los Angeles last season.
