Preview Roundups
October 22, 2017
Atlanta at Brooklyn 3:30 PM ET
The Atlanta Hawks have the misfortune of beginning the 2017-18 campaign with five straight games on the road, and they split the first two. The Hawks will try to make it two wins in the first three games when they visit the Brooklyn Nets in the first night of a back-to-back on Sunday.
Minnesota at Oklahoma City 7:00 PM ET
Russell Westbrook will try to rebound from a rare offensive clunker when he leads the Oklahoma City Thunder into a home matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday. After posting a triple-double in a season-opening win over New York, Westbrook was held to six points on 2-of-11 shooting in 36 minutes of a 96-87 loss at Utah on Saturday.
New Orleans at L.A. Lakers 9:30 PM ET
Los Angeles Lakers rookie Lonzo Ball struggled in his NBA debut on Thursday but looked like a completely different player in a dominating performance on Friday. Ball will try to establish some consistency and lead the Lakers to back-to-back wins when they host the New Orleans Pelicans on Sunday.
