The Lakers seek to end Clippers' winning streak & Stephen A. has picked his favorite

The Battle for LA has been one-sided during the regular season, with the Clippers holding an 11-0 winning streak over the purple and gold. Tonight, the Lakers are looking to reverse that trend.

The bad news for Coach Ham's team is that they will be missing three key rotation players, including one starter: Jarred Vanderbilt, Rui Hachimura, and Gabe Vincent.

ESPN's Stephen A. Smith has shared his thoughts on the game and believes that, for the moment, the Clippers are the superior team. "The Clippers have essentially dominated the Lakers over the last several years," said Smith.

Nevertheless, the Lakers are focused on winning titles rather than just defeating the Clippers. However, tonight, the purple and gold are determined to secure a victory and start a winning streak for the first time this season.

The Lakers will be facing former PG Russell Westbrook

The Lakers will also be facing their former point guard, Russell Westbrook, as they take on the Clippers tonight. Both parties didn't part on good terms.
