Dudley, being the fun guy he is, took this joke with open arms. He replied to Thompson’s tweet and said, “My guy!”

The Lakers might just very well give Dudley a few minutes in the game, as they are a little shorthanded. Regardless of the hiccups, the game has all the ingredients to be a thrilling contest between the two league juggernauts.

Can the Lakers defend their championship?

After winning the NBA Championship in the Orlando Bubble last year, the purple and gold finally ended their decade-long championship drought. LeBron James and Anthony Davis proved their worth as one of the best duos in the league.

This season, Laker fans will expect more of the same from the team. After adding many new players to the roster in the offseason, the Lakers are off to a blazing start this season. They are 22-7 so far and will be looking forward to registering their 23rd victory of the season.
