LAL vs NYK Dream11

Lakers vs Knicks NBA Live: The Los Angeles Lakers will enter the contest after beating the Suns behind a 42 points outburst by Anthony Davis. On the other hand, the New York Knicks will come into the battle after beating the Clippers rallying around 25 points outburst by Derrick Rose. More information about LAL vs NYK Dream11 will be given here.

Lakers’ season: Los Angeles’ campaign derailed when LeBron James went out and they slipped from 3rd/4th spot to the 7th spot in the NBA Standings for the Western Conference. The team suffered further when Schroeder had to go out because of COVID-19 protocols but the return of Anthony Davis means that they will have some impetus going forward in the NBA Play-in tournament. Lakers are locked into play with the Warriors if the standings remain the same.

Knicks’ season: Not many people would have expected the young team of New York Knicks to perform this well. Tom Thibodeau has made the Knicks number 1 defensive team in the league in terms of Points Allowed Per Game, with the oppositions restricted to 105 PPG. The Knicks are led for the most part by their bruising PF Julius Randle, have a host of guards, with the stellar Rose coming off the bench, and will be difficult to lock horns during the NBA Playoffs. They are in the 4th spot of the Eastern Conference standings.

LAL vs NYK Dream11 Team| Player Stats

Anthony Davis
PPG: 21.9
RPG: 8.0
APG: 3.0
BPG: 1.8
SPG: 1.2
TPG: 2.1
Projected Fantasy Points: 52
The Brow will be expected to carry the major load with LeBron out and he is more than capable of dominating both ends of the floor. The Forward has missed a lot of games due to injury but has been back in action with full swing. He is averaging 23.8 PPG for the last 5 games and has put up 35+ points twice in a row, which makes him a superb pick as the Super-Player in the Dream11 NBA scenario.

Julius Randle
PPG: 23.9
RPG: 10.3
APG: 5.9
TPG: 3.4
PFP: 46
Randle leads the Knicks in PPG, RPG, and APG, and since arriving to the glamorous city, he has become an outstanding player. The PF has become even more difficult to guard and his overall game has led Knicks to their current record.

RJ Barrett
PPG: 17.7
RPG: 5.8
APG: 3.0
TPG: 2.0
PFP: 37
The supremely talented guard is just 20 and the sky is the limit for this youngster, who can rack up points and defend at an elite rate. The young buck has been in prime form and has scored 20 points or more in 2 of the last 5 games.

Kyle Kuzma:
PPG: 12.8
RPG: 6.2
TPG: 1.7
PFP: 29
Kuzma missed the Lakers’ last game but when he plays, he is effective as a scorer and rebounder. Kyle may get 30+ minutes again with LeBron out but his own status is “probable”.

Andre Drummond(Since joining Lakers):  PPG: 11.2     RPG: 9.3         SPG: 1.2 TPG: 2.2     PFP: 24
Drummond’s tenure in the Lakers has been underwhelming so far and he has seen a reduction in his minutes. It appears it may take some time for him to get off the rust.

Derrick Rose(Since joining Knicks):   PPG: 14.8   APG: 4.2      TPG: 1.3
PFP: 36
Rose has been in superb touch off the bench for the Knicks and gives them immense depth at the PG spot. The former MVP has been impressive this month, averaging 21 PPG and crossing the 20 points threshold 3 times.

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope:   PPG: 9.5      PFP: 20
Reggie Bullock:   PPG: 10.9    RPG: 3.4      PFP: 18
Nerlens Noel:   PPG: 5.1     RPG: 6.4      BPG: 2.2     SPG: 1.1     TPG: 1.1 
PFP: 20
