On December 28, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA regular season is in full swing. In the year-end battle two days ago, the Lakers lost 115:122 at home to the Nets, suffering the longest six-game losing streak of the season so far, and the team's record is only 16 wins and 18 losses, ranking 7th in the West.
Earlier today, the Lakers officially released the team's latest injury report, as follows: Davis (left knee MCL sprain), Kendrick Nine (right kneecap impact), Ariza, Bazemore, Reeves, Rondo (trigger health and safety agreement) absent from the game; James (rectus abs strain) has a high probability of playing.
With the return of Howard, Tucker and Munch, there are currently only 4 players left in the team to punish the health and safety agreement, and the problem of the team's personnel is being solved little by little.
In addition, injury reports show that James has a high probability of playing, but in fact, James has played first in 11 consecutive games, setting a new personal record for consecutive appearances this season. Although the team's record is not good, James is still in good shape. In the last 13 games, James has scored 30+ 9 times!
Earlier today, Thomas Jr. officially said goodbye to the Lakers on social media. The Lakers won't renew his contract after the 10-day contract expires, which also means he won't be able to appear in tomorrow's game.
In the last game, the Lakers' other 10-day short-term contract player Stanley Johnson got the opportunity to play, and he had 7 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist in 27 minutes, which also accelerated Thomas Jr.'s departure.
According to the schedule, the Lakers will challenge the Rockets on the road tomorrow, and they will strive to win to avoid a six-game losing streak!
