Starting Lineups: Jan. 24
Saturday calls for a light slate in the Association with only five games on tap.
The early games aren't particularly enticing, but the late game involving the Washington Wizards and Portland Trail Blazers is a must-watch. Trail Blazers power forward LaMarcus Aldridge has decided to delay surgery on his hand in order to help his team in a time of great need. Watching a battle between John Wall and Damian Lillard should be pretty fun, too.
Here are your projected daily lineups.
