Knockout time — Lakers host Spurs on Dec. 10
The Los Angeles Lakers wrapped up group play by beating Dallas 129–119 and securing the No. 2 seed in the West. They’ll host the San Antonio Spurs in the Emirates NBA Cup quarterfinal on Dec. 10, while top-seeded Oklahoma City faces Phoenix.
Good news for L.A.: Victor Wembanyama’s calf injury might keep him out — though any fan still nervous can relax, because even the slippery NBA Cup court couldn’t make the Lakers slip past this one.
