Young who struggled last season on and off the court will try and have a comeback year under new head coach Luke Walton. Young’s strength in shooting the long ball should bode well with the Lakers new style of play.

Veteran Luol Deng is dealing with a knee injury that isn’t too serious but Los Angeles wants to be careful with the small forward before they head into the season.

Los Angeles will take on the Denver Nuggets tonight at Citizens Business Bank Arena in Ontario, California.
