The Los Angeles Lakers are currently mired in a four-game losing streak, dealing with not just a difficult schedule in recent weeks but also a merciless injury bug. With D’Angelo Russell, Nick Young, Tarik Black, and Jose Calderon all in street clothes, Los Angeles will have to rely on other players to step up and pick up the slack.
Coach Luke Walton will be hoping that his team can improve defensively, where they have slid all the way down to the bottom of the league. It won’t be easy, but Los Angeles hopes to pick up a much-needed win.
