# DO NOT MISS
After conceding a loss recorded at halftime in northern Canada, the Lakers should tonight find LeBron James and Anthony Davis, both listed “Probable” for the trip to Philadelphia. The challenge promises to be daunting, especially for Anthony Davis, who had just been voted player of the week before his injury (37.8 points, 13 rebounds and 3.3 blocks on average) and who will face Joel Embiid under the panels. The Lakers have just chained two defeats following a good series, and must imperatively end their road trip in style if they want to resume their ascent in the West. For their part, the Sixers, who recently saw James Harden return from injury, will seek to win following the hard loss suffered in double overtime in Houston. The three-game losing streak hurt Jojo and his pals, ejected to eighth place in the East. Big stakes for two teams lacking in rhythm, a match not to be missed.
We then go to the Bayou of Louisiana, for a confrontation at the top of the Western Conference. After the humiliation suffered at home once morest Bostonthe Suns had to give up their first place on the side of the setting sun, and this for the benefit… of the Pels precisely. Brandon Ingram and Herb Jones won’t be returning tonight following all, but Zion is monumental lately and there is no doubt that the people of Louisiana will dearly defend their newly acquired throne. In Phoenix, the morale is not as good as the weather, and the return of Chris Paul was not enough to restore the rhythm. Three losses in four games is not common in Arizona, and the two games in New Orleans tonight and Sunday night might well sink Phoenix even lower.
Finally, direction Dallas for a shock of MVP candidates: Luka Doncic receives Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks in Texas, not for a barbecue but for a duel at the top on the floor of the American Airlines Center. However, if some seek to chain the victories during a good series, the Bucks them seek to chain the series during a good season. Their Greek god is in better shape than ever, he who has not gone below 30 points since… November 18, a series of eight high-flying games allowing the deer to keep their second place in the east , with even a small mattress ahead of the Cavs, third. In Dallas too we have a smile, at least for the moment. Luka Doncic no longer scores alone in the wind, since Tim Hardaway Jr has decided to lend a hand to the Slovenianand it works for the Mavericks who have just had three successes in New York, at home once morest the Suns, then in Denver on Tuesday.
# ALSO WATCH
- The Knicks pay a visit to the North Carolina Hornets, the opportunity to finally show the long-awaited regularity for New Yorkers following their great victory once morest the Hawks at the Garden.
- The Pacers host the Wizards. Still no Bradley Beal in sight, questionable Kristaps Porzingis, Kyle Kuzma in franchise player mode?
- Dinos are coming to Disney! No visit to Universal Studios on the Raptors’ schedule, but a regular beating of Mickey’s friends to anticipate?
- It seems that the Nets have finally found the miracle recipe. KD on top, Joe Harris is back to doing Joe Harris, and Brooklyn will try to take a sixth victory in seven games tonight, once morest the Hawks plucked from almost all their starters.
- Hype game between two incredibly exciting darlings: Cleveland, 3rd in the East with a magnificent 16-9 record, hosts the Kings, 5th in the West at 13-10. Spida did dirty once morest the Lakersand will want to start once more once morest their neighbors in California.
- Detroit lost its last spot in the East, and that fact seems unacceptable to the Pistons. Travel to Memphis still without Cade Cunningham, we just have to wait for the Jaja show.
- Minnesota Cubs visit the Jazz, an opportunity for our National Rudy to reunite with his UTAH buddies for the first time since leaving.
