The Los Angeles Lakers have been playing some great basketball the past couple of weeks and they’ve been able to win games despite missing some of their rotation players like Rui Hachimura and Jaxson Hayes.
Both Hachimura and Hayes are dealing with ankle sprains, though neither ailment is considered serious. Without Hachimura and Hayes in the lineup, head coach JJ Redick has leaned on the likes of Cam Reddish, Dalton Knecht and Christian Koloko to fill the void and they’ve each performed admirably.
Los Angeles has had some rotten injury luck over the years that’s cost them games, but fortunately Redick and his coaching staff have been able to get the most out of the players they do have available.
