The Los Angeles Lakers are back in action on Friday night at crypto.com Arena, where they will look to overcome a recent slump when they host the Philadelphia 76ers.

The Lakers have lost two games in a row, most recently losing 131-114 to the Memphis Grizzlies on Wednesday. In this game, LeBron was on fire, scoring 39 points, although the Lakers struggled with their shots overall, hitting just 44.1% from the field. A sharper shooting night and a little more help for LeBron could be the recipe for success against a struggling 76ers team.

Meanwhile, Philadelphia is struggling on a four-game losing streak and is still searching for its rhythm early in the season. They suffered a 110-98 loss to the Clippers on Wednesday despite strong performances from Paul George and Kelly Oubre Jr., who each contributed 18 points and helped the team shoot 54.8%.

Both teams will try to turn things around tonight. If you want to follow the action, you can tune in to ESPN and stream it for free on fuboTV.
