After going through a rough stretch last week, the Los Angeles Lakers have seemingly gotten back on track for the time being, winning two games in a row in convincing fashion, crushing the Golden State Warriors and Sacramento Kings in consecutive games over the weekend.

JJ Redick's squad will try to keep up this much-needed momentum on Tuesday night when the team will go head-to-head against Zion Williamson and the visiting New Orleans Pelicans
