The Los Angeles Lakers go for their ninth win in 10 games when they head back home on Saturday to host the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The Los Angeles Lakers look to keep their hot streak rolling when they host LeBron James’ team that he will forever be associated with in the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Lakers have won four of their last five games and now 11 games over .500. If LA played in the Eastern Conference it would be in sixth place. Instead in the West, the Lakers are still in ninth and fighting to get out of a play-in spot. The Lakers have had an easier schedule though in these last five games and the Cavs will easily be the toughest opponent they’ve played in more than a week. LA is coming off a 125-120 win against the Washington Wizards on Wednesday. It was actually the Lakers’ eighth win in nine games as Anthony Davis scored 35 points to lead all scorers to sweep the season series against the Wizards. LA will be slight favorites at home this afternoon with a 4.5-point line.

The great news for the Cavaliers is that they got their superstar back in Donovan Mitchell from an extended injury. The bad news is that they haven’t been able to take advantage of the Milwaukee Bucks’ struggles and leapfrog them in the standings. That most recently happened when the Cavs lost to the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday. Mitchell led the Cavaliers with 24 points but was outshined by Devin Booker who scored 40. The Cavaliers will try to tie this season-series against the Lakers in the finale today.
