The Los Angeles Lakers head to Spectrum Center to face the Charlotte Hornets in a non-conference matchup. The Lakers are 24-18, which puts them in fifth place in the Western Conference. The Hornets are 11-30, which puts them in 13th place in the Eastern Conference.

The Hornets have also had some trouble defending inside the arc, where they allow opponents to shoot the ninth-highest 2-point percentage in the league (55.4%) and are prone to putting opponents on the line — allowing the 10th-most free throws per game (17.7).
