Lakers Vs 76ers
Staples Center, Los Angeles CA
Tip Off - 6:30PM
SpecSN/SpecD / 710 AM ESPN / 1330 AM ESPN DEPORTES

Quote:
Mike Trudel @LakersReporter
Nick Young will move to the bench as Walton said they want to see more of the young players at that spot.

Walton emphasized that Young has been “one or our two best players,” but is going to the bench as LAL want a longer look at young players.

Walton said that Ivica Zubac will eventually start at C …. could be tonight, could be tomorrow, could be next week. We’ll see.


If Young is moved to the second-unit then one of JC, Nwaba or Ennis could start along Russell in the backcourt. Zubac could replace Black also.

76ers - Simmons and Embiid are already out. Covington is now out due to right knee soreness sutained. Henderson is back for them.

I assUme... the real person being watched tonight is DLo, not Ennis. Magic/Rob and Luke are going to have to decide whether to bring in a ball handling guard to put beside DLo or not

Would've liked to see Nwaba starting if not JC, but it'll be interesting to see DLO next to an "actual" PG. Love Zubac starting of course!

Nwaba is starting. The scoreboard said Ennis, which confused Medina and the Lakers said it was a mistake.

Hopefully Trudell is right. Nwaba makes a lot more sense than Ennis.

NWABA is living the (bleep) dream!

LA fan, managed to secure a D-league contract via walk in workout, got called in for a 10 day contract, and now STARTING for your LA LAKERS?!?!!?!?

HOLY CRAP, you would have thought this is NBA 2K13 or something.

I'm so happy for this young man though :D

Hopefully he shows some offense out there tonight. Defense is all well and good, but providing literally zero scoring and spacing makes you a negative in the starting lineup.

But I hope Nwaba makes the best of it. Show what you got!

This lineup is going to be a spacing nightmare. Russell is the only one who can consistently make three-pointers. Should be interesting.

I just realized that without Young, Dlo has no other credible outside shooter to pass to. Nwaba? Randle? Ingram? Zubac? Most of these guys aren't even considered average shooters. This could be an ugly game on the offensive end. Its literally just Dlo as the only credible outside scoring threat. Ingram has been way too inconsistent with his 3pt shot

Time for my man Zu to show off his range!

Worthy will complain after this game about DLo's low assist total
