PREVIEW :
The Los Angeles Lakers play host to the Houston Rockets at Crypto.com Arena on Monday. The Rockets (10-33) have had the worst record in the league for a month now, and they just continue to get worse. Houston has lost 10 straight and 15 of their last 16 games in total. That’s the worst stretch from any team all season, and it isn’t going to get better anytime soon. While there’s an abundance of young talent on this roster, they simply have no veteran presence to get them over this hump. Kevin Porter Jr and Jalen Green have looked fantastic in the backcourt, but neither is becoming a better team-player. Studs like Anthony Edwards and Nikola Jokic have said they should build around Alperen Sengun at the center position, and it might be time to run the offense through the big man to switch things up. The Lakers (19-24) have suffered numerous devastating losses this season, and Sunday was another one of those. They played the Philadelphia 76ers in an epic battle but lost 113-112. Neither team led by more than eight points in that game, taking 18 ties and 23 lead changes to determine a winner. LeBron James flirted with a 35-point triple-double, while Russell Westbrook picked up a triple-double off the bench. Those two continue to play at All-Star levels, but it’s simply not enough with Anthony Davis (foot) missing so much time. The big man is expected to return soon, but they come into this matchup amid a three-game losing streak. These teams played four close matchups last season, with LA prevailing in three of four. That gives the Lakers six wins in their last seven matchups with the Rockets in total.
