After going undefeated in NBA Cup play, the Los Angeles Lakers are on a goal to extend their winning streak to seven games. LeBron James and Marcus Smart were ruled out, but they’re still looking formidable before the last-seeded New Orleans Pelicans. The shorthanded and very young Pelicans on the second game of a back-to-back set didn’t make it easy for the hosts. Tensions even flared a couple of times. However, Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves led the Lakers to a 133-121 win and their seventh consecutive win.
