It's game day. Lakers Pistons 4 p.m. Pacific time tonight can the Lakers push their winning streak to 10 games?

4 p.m. Pacific time tonight. Come

0:21.4

hang out. It's like a party. We've got a lot to get into on today's show. The injury

0:26.6

update, including a non-injury, but very important update involving Luca Donchage.

0:32.1

I'll talk about in just a moment. Plus, we got to get into the standings watch.
