The regular season of the NBA is coming to an end and in California a greater feeling of illusion could not have emerged despite the difficult season that the Lakers are experiencing. The injuries suffered by LeBron James and Anthony Davis, the two great references in the team, have prevented these players from being available to Darvin Ham for a large stretch of the course and this, as is evident, has affected the registered results in a very pejorative way and for this reason a month ago the options that the purple and gold set slipped into the play-off they were scarce.
LeBron James’ latest injury is taking longer than desired and, although Davis is in full physical condition, it is not the American center who is taking the reins of the team in the absence of ‘The King’, but The big reveal of the season at Crypto.com Arena: Austin Reaves.
the eave of 24 years I note 35 points in his team’s victory over the Orlando Magic and, apart from leave Anthony Davis in the backgroundhis performance has catapulted the Lakers to the positions of play-in. With twelve games still to play, the illusion has returned to California with the franchise’s options to access the play-off fast track and avoid that tiebreaker game: the Lakers are just one victory away from achieving what a month ago began to be classified as a miracle.
Another news to celebrate
That Austin Reaves has become the unexpected ‘signing’ is great news for the franchise, but this is not the only reason for joy today at Crypto.com since LeBron James will return to the tracks before the end of the regular phase.
The ‘6’ has been off the pitch for three weeks now and, just when the team needs to put all the meat on the spit, will return to the scene to strengthen the candidacy of the Lakers to sneak into the play-off. Only time will tell if it has the expected effect.
