LOS ANGELES (KDKA) - When in LA, right?

As the Penguins find themselves in California for a three-game swing that will take them to Los Angeles, Anaheim, and San Jose this week, the trip started with a little bit of fun.

Evgeni Malkin, Brandon Tanev, Kris Letang, and captain Sidney Crosby took in a Los Angeles Lakers game and made their way to center court for a group picture.

The four players watched the Lakers take on the New Orleans Pelicans.

Home fans went home happy, with the Lakers defeating the Pelicans 118-109. LeBron James led the way for the Lakers with 40 points.
