The Lakers had an opportunity to seal their win earlier. However, LeBron stole the show and it was a good win.
The team can still get out of the 9/10 match in the play-in tournament. LeBron and Anthony Davis played 40+ games, meaning LA is pretty serious about the playoffs. The big man missed the previous game due to an eye injury and illness.
Lakers players will go against the New Orleans Pelicans in Game 82. Their seeding depends on other games around the NBA, including the one between the Phoenix Suns and Golden State Warriors.
LeBron, Davis, and the rest of the Lakers players have to do their best to finish the season with great result. They lost easy games early in the season and affected their current record. Let’s see what happens in the play-in tournament. If things don’t go well, Darvin Ham may be forced to look for a new job in the offseason. NBA analysts have already discussed his future with the Lakers.
