The Lakers are currently 13-14 on the road and are coming off a loss last night to the Charlotte Hornets. The Luka Doncic addition still seems to be a work in progress. Their 100-97 loss to the Hornets was one of their worst losses of the season. They were up 11 at the half and were dreadful in the second half, scoring only 49 points.

The Portland Trail Blazers backed into the All-Star break on a three-game losing skid with all three of those Ls came on the road, but now they'll get to host the Los Angeles Lakers at Moda Center, where they're 15-13 straight up.
