The Lakers are trying to make tomorrow’s game against the Mavericks their 11th straight win, but will not be at full strength.
Kyle Kuzma suffered an ankle injury late against the Wizards and is now ”questionable” to play agains the Mavericks.
Avery Bradley, who has been out for a few weeks with a hairline fracture, was cleared for “basketball progression” on Saturday.
Bradley won’t be available tomorrow against Dallas or on the upcoming road trip, but will be re-evaluated next week.
The Lakers have a tough matchup tomorrow against the Mavericks who are one of the best offenses in the league. Luca Doncic has taken the league by storm and will be a nightmare for the Lakers to defend.
If the Lakers want to win the game, they’ll need to start by slowing down Doncic. That’s a tough ask even at full strength, and with Bradley out, it becomes even tougher. The team will need to play great team defense if they want to win tomorrow.
