The Lakers' big win over the Blazers in the last game also eased the pressure inside the team. The next game will be at home to meet the Timberwolves, the pre-game team also updated the latest injury report, the team is no longer trapped by the epidemic, the only remaining Rondo who will be traded to leave is in the agreement, the team only 3 players are absent due to injury.
Veteran Rondo is still in a health and safety agreement, and the Lakers and Cavaliers have reached a 1-for-1 deal to send Rondo to the Cavaliers in exchange for Valentine. Because Rondo has not yet terminated the agreement, the deal has not yet been officially announced, and he is still a member of the Lakers.
In addition to Rondo, Anthony Davis is still suffering from a left knee injury and will be absent for a while, while Nunn is plagued by a right knee injury and has not played for the team in the regular season this season. In addition, James is still trapped in a rectus abs muscle strain, and is placed in the list of high-probability players, and will play if he defeats.
James has been absent for a while because of this injury, and his state after returning is very hot, he has scored more than 30 points in 7 consecutive games, and the last game against the Blazers was 43 points, it is really difficult to imagine that he is 37 years old. The only bad thing about this is that the Lakers have only won 2 of their 7 games, which makes the Lakers' winning rate less than 50% again, and they are currently in seventh place in the West.
After the big victory over the Blazers, the Lakers' popularity has also recovered, and they are also determined to win consecutive games against the Timberwolves. James and Major General Wei led the team to attack with all their might, trying to start a wave of winning streaks, and the winning percentage exceeded 50% again. For the Lakers, the Timberwolves are plagued by the epidemic, the team's Towns and Russell are all in a health agreement, Edwards has just been released, and the state is not certain. From the current situation, the Lakers still occupy a very favorable position.
