Lakers Battle Injuries for Crucial Matchup Against Thunder
The Lakers face the Thunder in a back-to-back game, with the Lakers lacking rest and facing a rest disadvantage more often than their opponents this season. They have struggled in games where they have less rest, and this game against OKC is particularly challenging as they had a late arrival due to a long flight. The Lakers have been successful in contesting shots without fouling, but will need to make up for the rest disadvantage in other areas. Additionally, the Lakers have a lengthy injury list, with eight players listed, including Anthony Davis and LeBron James as questionable.
