Raptors vs. Lakers preview

The Raptors are hoping to get the bad taste out of their mouth from their overtime loss in the last game against the Los Angeles Clippers. The team struggled to keep their lead in the second half despite winning by as much as 14 during the contest.

Now the Raptors are heading out on a five-game road trip that starts with arguably their toughest game in that stretch against the Lakers. While the Lakers aren't 100 per cent with Austin Reeves on the sidelines with a calf strain and Doncic possibly missing the game with a groin injury, the team is still one to watch.

The Raptors do have a bit of an advantage in this game because the Lakers are coming off of a game last night against the Portland Trail Blazers. This is the second half of a back-to-back, and for an experienced team like the Lakers, they probably won't be at full strength for the game.

This is an opportunity for the Raptors to take advantage and start their road trip off on the right foot.
