The Los Angeles Lakers lost in their last match against the Miami Heat. The score stood at a close 108-107, in favor of the Heat. What concerns coach Darvin Ham more is Anthony Davis getting injured again. AD is highly unpopular for being injury-prone. In the last match, he was subbed twice. Though he tried his best to come on the court a third time, it simply did not help as he was visibly uncomfortable.

Ham is clearly not eyeing to risk their crucial dice with the long season lying ahead. He can come back fit in the upcoming matches. If the decision stands, it would be an overall good decision from the Lakers’ end.
Other than that, the news regarding the Japanese Rui Hachimura’s return sends fans into a frenzy. He was ruled out due to an injury after playing three games this season. Averaging 8.0 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 0.3 assists, he can be a real threat to the opponents if stays fit.
What is waiting for the Lakers?
The Lakers are currently tenth in the Western Conference table. Not so satisfactory for the team with enough firepower and championship-contending roster. The only player who remains consistent is none other than LeBron James. He is averaging 25.3 points, with 8.4 rebounds, and 5.4 assists. The Lakers are looking clueless in non-LeBron minutes.
