On February 28, the Los Angeles Lakers (31-28) and the Los Angeles Clippers (37-19) will square off at Crypto.com Arena. This article contains the most in depth basketball analysis about this coming game.
Lakers Analysis: They’ve won 3 in last 5 matches
Two of the last 3 games for the Los Angeles Lakers (31-28) have ended in losses. They lost 128-110 on the road to the Golden State Warriors and 123-113 to the Phoenix Suns, in between a 123-118 home triumph against the San Antonio Spurs. The Lakers defeated the Suns 52-40 in the paint last Sunday while shooting 52.2% from the field (15-for-35 from beyond the arc). Even still, the Lakers only managed to earn 8 free throws and missed 4 of them, so it wasn’t enough. In addition, they gave up 14 offensive rebounds while grabbing three back. On the Suns, LeBron James scored 28 points. In addition, he had 7 rebounds and 12 assists.
Clippers Analysis: Coming off a big loss
The Los Angeles Clippers, on the other hand, have been playing well lately, having won 7 of their previous eleven games. However, they will be looking for a stronger performance in this one after losing to the Kings 123-107 in their last game. Ivica Zubac added 16 points on 8 of 9 shooting, James Harden and Kawhi Leonard both scored 20 points, and Norman Powell topped the club with 21 points on 8 of 17 shooting. The Clippers as a team shot 48% from the field and 8 of 27 from three points, but they didn’t play the kind of defense they usually do because the Kings always had the upper hand after winning the second quarter 33-23. Powell gave the Clippers a rare start, but Russell Westbrook’s meager 8 points on 3 of ten shots certainly made their bench appear limited.
