On Friday night, two of the NBA's biggest stars, LeBron James and Victor Wembanyama, will go head-to-head as the Los Angeles Lakers and San Antonio Spurs kick off their journey in the 2024 Emirates NBA Cup.

This in-season tournament is back for its second year, with tonight marking the first Group Play game for both teams. Each team will play four Group Play games, with only eight teams advancing to the Knockout Round.

LeBron enters the game fresh off a dominant performance, scoring 35 points, grabbing 12 rebounds, and dishing out 14 assists in a win over the Memphis Grizzlies—his third consecutive triple-double.

Meanwhile, Wembanyama is coming off a career-high 50 points in a victory against the Washington Wizards and has hit at least six threes in three straight games.
