LAL vs SAS Dream11: The NBA Regular Season is in full flow and this has been an amazing start to the season. This season promises to be another brilliant one and this is a window where teams can face a ton of injuries as well as fatigue. In this game, the San Antonio Spurs are going to take on the Los Angeles Lakers.
The Spurs enter the game after suffering a 110:129 loss against the Pelicans despite a 26 points performance by Devin Vassell. The Spurs have now lost six in a row. Meanwhile, the Lakers come into the fray after losing to the Suns 105:115 despite a 37 points outing by Anthony Davis. The Lakers were gaining steam with three wins in a row but the loss set them back.

Lakers: Will they go down again?
The Lakers were on a decent course for a while but then again, a three-game losing streak set them back. Anthony Davis has been a big-time performer with his incredible rebounding, and inside scoring, and one of the best defenders, but he has been the only reliable option for the squad. Lonnie Walker IV has been a revelation as a scorer. LeBron James has missed games due to an injury whereas Russell Westbrook has given some decent boost off the bench. Austin Reaves is a strong rebounder and an improving scorer as well. The rest of the unit is inconsistent for most parts and they will need to do much better. The bench has been abysmal outside of Westbrook.
Spurs: They lack cohesion
The Spurs have lost control over stuff recently and their offense has been much worse compared to earlier parts of the season. Defensively, they lack strong individual defenders and have been struggling basically on both ends. Devin Vassell has been a brilliant scorer and the same goes for Keldon Johnson who has lost a bit of zip lately. Jakob Poeltl is a strong screen-setter and rebounder but he is more of a complementary player. Tre Jones has been impressive in terms of playmaking but his scoring is inconsistent. Two-way wing Jeremy Sochan has played a crucial part too.

Keldon Johnson(SAS) Points: 05 Rebounds: 01 Assists: 00 Wing Kelodon is one of the best three-point shooters in the league but lately, his game has been off. I believe he will be in 16-22 points and 4-7 rebounds range.
Anthony Davis(LAL) Points: 37 Rebounds: 21 Assists: 02 Blocks: 05 Steals: 05 Big Forward Davis done a wonderful job as a scorer, rebounder, and defender, whose ability on both ends has played a big role. I believe he will be in 30+ points, 13-18 rebounds, and 1-5 steals/blocks range here. He can be chosen as the Star/Pro Player in the Dream11 Fantasy NBA scene.
Devin Vassell(SAS) Points: 26 Rebounds: 04 Assists: 08 Steals: 01 Off-Guard Devin has been an amazing scorer and he now has the keys to the offense as a playmaker. I believe he will be in 20-26 points and 4-7 assists range.
Russell Westbrook(LAL) Points: 21 Rebounds: 03 Assists: 05 Guard Russell is one of the best bench players in the league and can be considered as a Sixth Player of the Year Award. I believe she will be in 12-18 points, 8-12 assists, 7-10 rebounds, and 1-3 steals range.
Lonnie Walker IV(LAL) Points: 24 Rebounds: 00 Assists: 02 Guard Lonnie is a big-time athletic player who can also shoot well from outside. I believe he will be in 16-22 points range here.
Jakob Poeltl (SAS) Points: 04 Rebounds: 14 Assists: 03 Steals: 03 Center Poeltl has been an amazing big and he can be a strong rebounder, screen-setter and can also score inside. I believe he will be in 10-16 points, 9-13 rebounds, and 1-3 steals/blocks range.
