Intent on avoiding a season-high losing streak, the Detroit Pistons will visit the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday as they close out a five-game road trip.

The first returns from the voting for this season's NBA All-Star Game are in, and Los Angeles Lakers fans will like how the balloting is going so far. For the last couple of years, many have been expecting Austin Reaves to become an All-Star in the near future.

The Los Angeles Lakers spent the weekend looking to regroup following a three-game losing streak, including a loss on Christmas Day.

Coach JJ Redick said he calmly delivered a message to his players that it was time for "reconnection" with the team's second-leading scorer sideline at least a month.

The Rockets exposed the Lakers on both ends of the floor, registering a whopping 23-point victory at the Crypto.com Arena.

Nick Smith Jr. scores 21 points off the bench as Luka Doncic and LeBron James lead the Lakers to a 125-101 victory over the Kings for a much-needed win.

Nick Smith Jr., a third-year guard who hasn't been in coach JJ Redick's rotation this season, got 24 minutes of playing time and scored 21 points on 8-of-14 overall shooting and 5-of-10 from 3-point range. He was a significant factor in the Lakers' 125-101 victory over the Kings that snapped a three-game losing streak.
