Los Angeles Clippers vs Los Angeles Lakers: Storylines

Anthony Davis and LeBron James aren’t going to suit up for the preseason opener and they’re not likely to play many minutes in the preseason at all. For the Clippers, we can expect them to try and go at full strength since day one to get the players on the same page.

Tyronn Lue will try to make the adjustments Doc Rivers couldn’t do, and the Clippers need to ease Serge Ibaka into the game now that they’ve lost Montrezl Harrell to the very same team they’ll face tonight.
