Los Angeles Lakers vs. Chicago Bulls Analysis
The Los Angeles Lakers have been a problem on the road this season. The Lakers have won just 5 of 14 games away from Los Angeles. They will look to change that first in Chicago. The last time the Lakers played on the road, they lost by 14 to the worst NBA team in the West; the San Antonio Spurs.
Los Angeles is led by the dynamic duo of LeBron James and Anthony Davis. James is scoring more than 25 points per game, along with 7.6 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game. Davis is at 24.2 points and 12.6 rebounds per game. D’Angelo Russell is third on the team with 15.8 points per game.
The Lakers are on the road for two more after this. The Lakers take on Minnesota Thursday and Oklahoma City Saturday, before hosting the Celtics on Christmas Day.
Bulls’ Holiday Feast
The Chicago Bulls are led by DeMar DeRozan with 22.2 points per game. The big scorer emerging for Chicago lately has been Cobe White. White scored 24 in the win over Philadelphia, and is up to 17.5 points per game. The Bulls have been without Zach LaVine, as he has missed 10 games so far this season.
The big man in the pain for Chicago has been Nikola Vucevic. He and Patrick Williams have played every NBA game this season, and are combining for more than 27 points, and nearly 15 rebounds per game.
Chicago is at home for the first of six games here. The Bulls do not play another road game until January 2nd. The Spurs, Cavaliers, Hawks, Pacers and 76ers come to town before the New Year.
