To cap the NBA’s Martin Luther King Jr. slate, the Golden State Warriors will travel south to Staples Center for a prime time matchup with the Los Angeles Lakers.
For the first time in the new 2020-21 season, Steph Curry, Draymond Green and the rest of the new-look Warriors will square off with LeBron James, Anthony Davis and the defending champion Lakers. After Curry missed most of last season due to injury, Monday’s tilt will be the first time he has lined up against the James and Davis tandem in Los Angeles.
Riding a two-game losing streak, the Warriors will need to lean on Curry and Green to hang with the red-hot Lakers at Staples Center. Along with a five-game winning streak, Los Angeles is sitting on top of the NBA with an 11-3 record.
