Trail Blazers at Lakers Preview

The undefeated Portland Trail Blazers (2-0) visit the Los Angeles Lakers (3-0) on Tuesday night in a nationally televised matchup at 8:00 PM Pacific. Both teams enter the contest with high-powered offenses, with the Lakers averaging a league-high 128 points per game and the Blazers ranking second with 126 points per game. Los Angeles is coming off a 132-123 win against the Utah Jazz behind a 52-point, 10-assist performance from Luka Doncic.

Injuries could play a factor as the Blazers have listed Scoot Henderson as questionable with ankle soreness, while Shaedon Sharpe remains out. Former Blazer Matisse Thybulle is set to face his old team for the first time as a member of the Lakers, serving as their primary perimeter defender.
