Anthony Davis will play as part of the Los Angeles Lakers against the New Orleans Pelicans on Nov. 27, while Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving will go up against the Boston Celtics on Nov. 27. Finally, Houston Rockets' Russell Westbrook will play against his team of 10 years, Oklahoma City Thunder, on Jan. 9.
