Thanks to the Grizzlies' indirect "help," the Los Angeles Lakers are once again back in the playoff playoffs. But even so, the Lakers' position is still unstable. Today, the Lakers will also go to the away game to challenge the Utah Jazz. Even the Utah Jazz have been in poor form recently, suffering five straight losses. However, the state of the Lakers is also very poor, and many Lakers fans have begun to become more and more pessimistic about the team's prospects. Fortunately, James and Davis are finally getting together.
Previously, ESPN reporters had reported that Davis planned to return in the game against the New Orleans Pelicans. And today, Shams, a well-known Basketball reporter in the United States, reported that multiple sources said that Lakers forward Anthony Davis plans to make a comeback against the Pelicans. The news of Shams and ESPN has always been relatively reliable, both of which said that Davis will return in the Lakers' game against the Pelicans tomorrow, and it is believed that fans can see Davis wearing the Lakers jersey tomorrow. In addition, some medical experts believe that Davis's current recovery situation is not yet 100%, so it is necessary to limit the playing time. In any case, Davis can come back, which is a big plus for the Lakers.
In addition, ESPN also reported on James' update. According to multiple sources, James will be assessed for an ankle sprain injury and is expected to try to make a comeback against the Pelicans. Judging from this news, James' injury recovery is also relatively good, which means that James and Davis can play as soon as tomorrow against the Pelicans.
In the last two seasons, Lakers fans have seen James and Davis play together in only 48 games combined. Now we can finally see the long-awaited "Zhan Mei Combination" again. The Lakers have reached the moment of a backwater battle, and James and Davis can reunite at this time, just to fight for the final playoff add-on. However, before seeing the Zhan Mei fit, the Lakers still need to fight the Utah Jazz team. Although the Jazz rank sixth in the West, they are also out of shape recently, and if lakers James and Davis' teammates can fight this game, then the pressure after the comeback of the two of them will be much less. In any case, let's look forward to the Zhan Mei combination leading the Lakers to win the rest of the game!
