FROM ABOVE ARTICLE:
Tier 2: In a Good Place
6. Los Angeles Lakers (48-26)
Last ranking: 7
In the last week: L at DET, W at IND, W vs BRK
Offensive rating: 117.2 (eighth place)
Defensive rating: 115.7 (20th place)
Frontier Award: Luka Dončić
The Lakers have a powerful force in Dončić, the league’s leading scorer at 33.7 points per game. Dončić has 15 40-point games this season; that’s almost one 40-point game per technical foul. Fortunately, 40-point games don’t get rescinded, and neither does the fact that the Lakers haven’t lost consecutive games this month.
Lakers 6th in NBA and Athletic power rankings.
