Things are starting to look up for the Los Angeles Lakers. The team, who are winners of seven of their last ten games, have recently seen both the return of their prized point guard Lonzo Ball, and a brilliant stretch of games from their budding star in the making--Brandon Ingram. The recent wins, and development, encapsulates a healthy dose of optimism in Laker-land heading into what is the homestretch of the NBA season.
The team though, is not exempt to their share of unfortunate luck. Channing Frye, who along with Isaiah Thomas joined the team via a deadline trade, has undergone an appendectomy, keeping him out of the rotation for the time being.
