Injuries are a part of sports, but that doesn’t make them any easier to tolerate. Unfortunately, New Orleans Pelicans big man DeMarcus Cousins suffered a torn Achilles on Friday night in a win over the Houston Rockets, and the ramifications will be far-reaching, even for the Los Angeles Lakers.
LN News Feed host Trevor Lane broke down the injury and dug into what the impact will be on the Western Conference this season. Could Los Angeles sneak back into the playoff race, or has that ship already sailed?
Plus, the trade deadline is just under two weeks away.
