The Los Angeles Lakers are back on the floor Sunday night at Staples Center and they will do so against one of the most surprising 2-0 teams to start the regular season, the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Wolves are now 2-0 after spoiling the Utah Jazz home opener on Saturday night, 116-111. D’Angelo Russell and 2020 No. 1 pick Anthony Edwards have both looked very good in support of Karl Anthony Towns.
The Lakers are coming off of their first win of the season on Christmas Day. It was a dominant performance against the Dallas Mavericks in which LeBron James watched the Lakers build their lead to 23 before the game’s end, as the Lakers got major contributions from their newcomers, Montrezl Harrell and Dennis Schröder.
