The Los Angeles Lakers were back in action Monday night to take on the Philadelphia 76ers. The team is coming off a loss at the hands of the Brooklyn Nets the day before and were without the services of Jeremy Lin and Carlos Boozer. Both players sat out while dealing with upper respiratory infections. Wayne Ellington started in place of Lin in what was a homecoming for the Philadelphia native. Check out the highlights provided by TWC SportsNet below:
