On February 9, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued to unfold, and the Lakers will face the defending champion Bucks at home. In a pre-game interview with the Lakers, Vogel revealed bad news, Howard and Anthony will both miss the game, and another injured man, Nunn, is injured and cannot return this month.
In a pre-game interview, Lakers coach Vogel revealed that Howard missed the game because of nervous lower back, missing 2 consecutive games; Anthony continued to miss because of a right hamstring strain, and after there was no Anthony, the Lakers bench needed someone to stand up and make up for the gap left by Anthony.
Vogel then revealed About Nunn, revealing he would not be able to return in February. Last offseason, the Lakers signed Nunn to a mid-level contract, but he was injured after playing the preseason and has not yet represented the team in the regular season.
Anthony and Howard are absent, but fortunately the Lakers still have the Big Three, James and Davis will play in the game. The last Lakers reversed and defeated the Knicks, stopping the decline, I believe they all want to continue this momentum. James and Davis have been in excellent form lately, and can compete with Brother Alphabet to see if other players can stand up and help them, and the play of Westbrook and Munch will be the key to the game.
In addition to injuries, the Lakers are also very active in the free market, and if they want to get a player who is more influential on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, Tucker Jr. and Nunn may become chips. In addition, the Lakers also want to clean up the contract between Jordan Jr. and Bazemore, which can be a buyout or a deal. For this, the Lakers want to free up a lineup list, and there is a little salary saving, after all, the salary pressure of the Big Three is a bit large.
