Beijing time on April 3, tomorrow the Lakers will meet the Nuggets at home, before the two sides began to match, the Lakers released the team's injury situation, and then I will take you to understand the specific details. Lakers injury report! Zhan Mei is suspicious, Wei Shao ushered in the test, can the Lakers avoid 6 consecutive losses?
A total of 5 players appeared on the Lakers' injury list this time, as follows:
Nunn: Bruised right knee bone, unable to play
James: Sprained left ankle, doubtful to play (50% probability of playing)
Davis: Sprained right midfoot, doubtful (50% chance of playing)
Anthony: Sick, high probability of playing (75% probability of playing)
Mason Jones: Sent to the Development League and unable to play
Judging from the current situation, Zhan Mei is in a state of doubt, which also casts a shadow on the Lakers' next schedule. After all, the Lakers have recently suffered a wave of 5 consecutive losses, in the case of few remaining games, the Lakers almost do not have any fault tolerance rate, whether Zhan Mei can play, directly affect the lakers in the final stage of play.
The Lakers only have the last 5 games left this season, the opponents are the Nuggets (6th in the West), the Suns (1st in the West), the Warriors (3rd in the West), the Thunder (14th in the West) and the Nuggets (6th in the West), this schedule is not friendly to the Lakers, whether it is against the Suns or the Warriors, or 2 Games to the Nuggets, the Lakers are in a more passive situation.
In the case of Zhan Mei's doubts, Wei Shao ushered in a severe test. If James and Davis really lack the Nuggets, then how will Westbrook's single-core team perform, whether the Lakers can avoid 6 consecutive losses, and this question has also put a big question mark in everyone's mind.
At present, the Lakers are currently ranked 11th in the West, 1 win behind the Spurs in the 10th place in the West, and 3 wins behind the Pelicans in the 9th place in the West. With only 5 games left, if the Lakers want to return to the play-off zone (7th-10th in the division), then the Lakers can not afford to lose the next 5 games.
Even against the League's Number One Suns, the Lakers have to fight to win the game, after all, the Spurs will not easily give up the play-off qualification. Although james and Davis' appearance status has been assessed as a doubt, in order to qualify for the playoffs, it is believed that Zhan Mei should choose to play with injuries in the future. After all, the Lakers have the last 5 games left, when will they stay longer if they don't fight at this time?
As long as they can qualify for a playoff, then the Lakers still have the hope of advancing to the playoffs, and it can be said that the remaining 5 games are the lakers' last hope. As for whether the Lakers can eventually return to the playoff area, let's wait and see!
