The Los Angeles Lakers will host the Boston Celtics after a 4-3 road trip. The team has been holding on their own without LeBron James and Anthony Davis, who will probably return in a few days. This will also be the first time fans will be allowed into the Staples Centre this season. 

"Man, I can't wait," head coach Frank Vogel said. "The mystique of being in that building with our great fans is a big part of why it's so cool to be a Laker. And it's just been absent this year, and it's been missed. We're excited to have our fans back, for sure". The team will also unveil their championship banner.

"Offensively, it's probably the worst I've played in my career, so I'm still trying to figure it out here," Andre Drummond admitted. However, he refuses to let it allow to take him out of his game, and is determined to help the team out defensively.  

"We know it's been an up-and-down season," Jayson Tatum said, currently recovering from COVID-19. "We've had to battle a lot of things with Covid, and guys being injured. We're just trying to build momentum". 

Slowly returning back to his original pace and game, Tatum is averaging 31.6 points and 8.6 rebounds over his last five games. Last week, he was named the Eastern Conference Player of the Week.
