The Los Angeles Lakers will take on the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday night. LA is coming off a strong win last night against the Grizzlies and will look to make it two in a row.
Phoenix comes into the game with 19-51 record while the Lakers sport a 15-55 clip. The Suns have lost two of the last three games.
Tyson Chandler left the Suns last game due to back spasms. Paul Coro of the Arizona Republic reported the news.
