NBA: 5 burning questions that need to be answered in preseason

NBA burning preseason questions: How will the Los Angeles Lakers trio work?

One of the biggest questions heading into the preseason for the Los Angeles Lakers revolves around how Russell Westbrook will fit next to LeBron James and Anthony Davis. On talent alone, however, the expectation is that the Lakers will be a strong favorite in the West.

Performing well in the preseason will go a long way in that being solidified as a narrative. Of course, this is one of those questions that might not be fully answered based on the fact that LA will likely play it safe in exhibition play.

Their trio isn’t likely to play much in the preseason, though when they do see action all eyes will likely be on this team. Can they make it all work to transform into the contender that many expect them to be?
