On the road, the Lakers have gone 4-8, while they are 6-6 at home.
As for the 76ers, they are the eighth seed in the Eastern Conference with a 12-12 record in 24 games.
At home, they are 7-5, while one the road, they are 5-7.
In their last game, the 76ers lost in overtime (132-123) to the Houston Rockets in Texas.
