EDGE Analysis

With Talen Horton-Tucker set to make his season debut, the Lakers will shuffle the lineup and insert the Iowa State product at the small forward spot, while Avery Bradley and Russell Westbrook will start in the backcourt. Ellington made his first start of the season Friday against Minnesota, but he managed just six points in 28 minutes in the blowout loss.
