Watch: Lakers rap on team plane following win over Pelicans

Jake Roth-USA TODAY Sports

Team morale hasn't been quite this high in Laker country for quite some time, with the team enjoying a strong start to the 2016-17 campaign with a respectable 6-4 record.

Win No. 6 came on Saturday when Los Angeles ran roughshod over the depleted New Orleans Pelicans on their home floor in a 126-99 thumping. To put it into context, the Lakers didn't win their sixth game last season until Dec. 30.

On the flight heading to Minnesota for Sunday's matchup with the Timberwolves, Lakers players got rowdy with some rapping and freestyles, clearly riding the high of their fifth win in six tries.
