The Los Angeles Lakers won big Saturday night, defeating the Golden State Warriors away from home by 28 points and snapping a three-game skid in the process.
Sunday night, they'll face the Sacramento Kings looking for another win on the second night of a back-to-back.
Ahead of the game, Los Angeles made some roster moves, calling up both Bronny James and Adou Thiero from the South Bay Lakers.
Thiero and James Jr. played in the G-League yesterday, scoring eight and 12 points respectively in a win against the Stockton Kings.
Drew Timme scored 22, but was not amongst the Lakers that were called up.
Additionally, according to NBA insider Dave McMenamin, LeBron James is questionable for Sunday's matchup. James' foot injury isn't expected to be serious, however, given his age (41), he may be held out of the contest due to the strain of back-to-back games.
That said, due to the blowout, James played just 22 minutes against the Warriors.
Apart from James, the Lakers' injury report is clean.
As for the Kings, they'll be without four of their starters. The trio of Zach LaVine, De'Andre Hunter and Domantas Sabonis have all underwent season-ending surgery. Additionally, Sacramento will also be without Dylan Cardwell, Keegan Murray and Isaiah Stevens.
Following Sunday night's game, the Lakers will face the New Orleans Pelicans at home Tuesday, part of six of their next seven matchups at home.
As for the Kings, they'll begin a five-game homestand of their own in their next game against the Phoenix Suns Tuesday.
