PHX vs LAL Dream11: High-flying dunks, tough rebounding, sharpshooting, defense, team play, a lot is involved in the making of the good ol’ NBA game.
The Western Conference has seen a lot of action as usual and the Phoenix Suns keep on throwing curveballs, while the Memphis Grizzlies have been kicking the door too. Anyway, here, we will see the Phoenix Suns will take on the Los Angeles Lakers.

The Suns have been getting it done despite a two-game losing streak, including bizarre losses to short-handed Grizzlies and bottom-feeders Thunder, they will be viewed as the title favourites. On the other hand, the Lakers began as the title favorites but at this point, even making it to the Postseason looks tough and the team will be without LeBron James.

Match-ups

LeBron James will not be playing here and without him, the Lakers will be at a huge disadvantage. For the Suns, the wing position belongs to Mikal Bridges who is having a scintillating season, an area where the team is sure to extract a lot of advantage. Another position where the team can have a strong advantage is the Center position with Deandre Ayton taking on the Lakers’ Dwight Howard.

At the guard position, the backcourt of Chris Paul and Devin Booker has been decimating teams and although Westbrook has been playing brilliantly, he alone can’t fend them off, and while Monk has been terrific, he will not be enough to outscore the two more times than not. The Guard position has been rather vulnerable on defense for the Lakers.

Jae Crowder and Cameron Johnson further add to the Forward position for the Suns but the big Forward position is the only position where the Lakers seem to have a decisive advantage, although his status is questionable here. Carmelo Anthony will have to come up with a big night to match-up here. Overall, the Suns hold the most cards here and have the Lakers outmatched in most areas on both ends.
