For a long time, the Lakes have not been able to catch up with the leader of the West, Utah. Although they are still considered one of the main contenders for the championship. The team continues to bend its line and performs steadily. The Lakers recently underestimated Denver and lost in an away clash (105-122), but after that they quickly reorganized and dealt with Minnesota (112-104) without any problems. The team performs without Anthony Davis, as the star striker was out of action for two to three weeks due to an Achilles injury. Frank Vogel’s charges will face a tough test in the next match, as Brooklyn is visiting. But one of the leading clubs in the Eastern Conference also has problems with the roster, so competitors are in almost the same conditions.
Toronto was not at all embarrassed by the fact that the reptiles played against one of the best teams in the East. Their victory was well deserved. After a terrible start, Nick Nurse’s men came to their senses and began to gain victories. The Raptors have celebrated six victories in their last nine games. Thanks to these indicators, they are ranked seventh in the East. It is worth noting that Toronto has been playing quite well at a party lately. Although for the “reptiles” all matches are away. The Raptors cannot play in Canada due to the coronavirus. Their temporary home site is the Amelie Arena in Tampa.
