Los Angeles Lakers vs Miami Heat Fantasy NBA: The Los Angeles Lakers will enter the game after losing to Brooklyn Nets despite a 32 points performance by their herculean Forward LeBron James. Meanwhile, the Miami Heat will hit the floor after beating the Sacramento Kings rallying around twin triple-doubles from Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo. More information regarding LAL vs MIA Dream11 fixture will be given here.

Lakers’ season: Lakers have done a terrific job as the team who won the NBA Finals last season, they have been proactive on both ends of the floor and are one of the best defensive lineups in the Association. The Lakers will be without Anthony Davis at least till All-Star Break but LeBron will make sure that their campaign doesn’t derail.

Heat’s season: Miami has had a tough time this season, partly due to injuries and health protocols, but mostly because their team lacks last year’s stability. They are placed 11th in the Eastern Conference NBA Standings, but Jimmy Butler recently expressed that he is sure that they will make the playoffs. The Miami Heat will face a tough opponent in the Lakers and will hope that they sneak one more on the road.

Los Angeles Lakers vs Miami Heat, NBA News

Los Angeles Lakers team News:
Status out: Kostas Antetokounmpo: The Forward has been ruled out for the game against the Heat
Anthony Davis: Davis is out for the game against the Brooklyn Nets
Status Questionable: Dennis Schroeder is questionable for the game
Los Angeles Lakers active roster: LeBron James, Kyle Kuzma, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Marc Gasol, Devontae Cacok, Alex Caruso, Quinn Cook, Montrezl Harrell, Talen Horton-Tucker, Wesley Mathews, Alfonzo McKinnie, Markieff Morris.
Miami Heat team News:
Status out: Meyers Leonard, Goran Dragic, Chris Silva, and Avery Bradley will not play in the game.
Miami Heat active roster: Duncan Robinson, Bam Adebayo, Andre Iguodala, Udonis Haslem, Kendrick Nunn, Precious Achiuwa, KZ Okpala, Kelly Olynyk, Max Strus, Gabe Vincent.

The Heat will have trouble playing against the Lakers as they are led by a winning player in James. Heat does have versatility in players such as Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo, but the squad misses the chemistry this season. If the Heat can somehow shut down LeBron James then they will not have to worry about the rest of the squad much.

The Lakers will look to contain Jimmy Butler and Caldwell-Pope is most likely going to attend to this duty. Miami is amidst a long road-trip and the exhausted squad will like to rack up at least two wins a row to bolster their season’s campaign.
