The Los Angeles Lakers (7-2) host the Portland Trail Blazers (6-1) at Crypto.com Arena on Friday, November 6, seeking payback after a blowout loss the prior week. The game also serves as an NBA Cup West Group C matchup, where the Lakers need a bounce-back win following an opening loss to the Golden State Warriors that left them at 0-1 with a minus-17 point differential.
Portland enters the rematch without Ja Morant, who scored 23 points in the previous meeting but is sidelined with a Grade 2 hamstring injury alongside Vit Krejci and Shaedon Sharpe. For Los Angeles, Sandro Mamukelashvili is questionable with an illness, while Bronny James Jr. and Cameron Carr remain on G-League assignment.
