Los Angeles Lakers vs. Golden State Warriors [Saturday, February 08, 2020]

This Saturday, there is a matchup between two Western Conference teams in the NBA as the Los Angeles Lakers and the Golden State Warriors will face off at about 8:30 PM. This will be the second meeting between these teams this season and it will take place at the Chase Center.


Warriors Look For A Rare Home Win
So far this season, the Golden State Warriors have looked like one of the worst teams in the Western Conference. The Warriors have lost 40 of its first 52 games and they are in possession of last place in the conference standings. To make matters worse, the Warriors have lost six of their last eight games so they have been playing some terrible basketball lately. Now, Golden State will be looking to get back on track with another home game up next. However, Golden State has lost 17 of its first 24 home games this season so it has struggled in front of its home fans all season long.

Leading the Warriors offensively is forward Eric Paschall who has been solid so far this season as he is averaging a team-high 16.1 points per game along with 4.7 rebounds per game. In addition, he is shooting 48.4% from the floor so he has been pretty efficient up to this point.

Golden State’s most underrated player is shooting guard Damion Lee who has been pretty good this season as he is averaging 11.8 points per game along with 5.0 rebounds per game. However, he is also shooting just 40.9% from the floor so he has been pretty inefficient offensively up to this point.
