The Los Angeles Lakers will hit the road for their contest on Monday as they get set to take on the Portland Trail Blazers for their eighth game of the season.

The Los Angeles Lakers saw superstar Luka Doncic's injury status change ahead of Monday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers.

Fresh off his best game as a Laker, Bronny came back with his best game as a Laker. He knocked down a big 3-pointer in the second half of this one and showed a lot of poise when attacking the rim, finding Ayton for one of those dump-off passes leading to a dunk.

The Los Angeles Lakers are thriving, and LeBron James hasn’t even stepped foot on the court yet. Nobody expected a collapse for a LeBron-less Lakers team, especially considering Luka Doncic is leading the charge.

Luka Dončić missed three games late in October with a finger sprain and a leg contusion. Although the Slovenian star played in the Lakers’ last two games, the team opted to rest him for Monday’s matchup. Austin Reaves, meanwhile, appeared in Los Angeles’ first seven games but has also been ruled out against Portland due to right groin soreness.

The Buss family's four-decade run as majority owner of the Los Angeles Lakers is ending as the NBA approved the sale of the team to Mark Walter.

One week after defeating the Lakers, the Portland Trail Blazers will look to do it again when they host Los Angeles on Monday night.
