Los Angeles Lakers Injury Report Against Cavs
Lakers Will Be Without Anthony Davis, LeBron James, and D'Angelo Russell Against Cavs
The Los Angeles Lakers will be without three of their top players when they take on the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday night. Anthony Davis (foot), LeBron James (ankle), and D'Angelo Russell (knee) have all been ruled out for the game.
Davis is dealing with a stress reaction in his right foot and has missed the Lakers' last two games. James is nursing a sore right ankle and has missed the Lakers' last three games. Russell is dealing with a sprained right knee and has missed the Lakers' last four games.
The Lakers are already struggling this season with a 13-20 record, and the absence of Davis, James, and Russell will make it even more difficult for them to win games.
Lakers' Remaining Schedule
The Lakers have 10 games remaining on their schedule, including three more road games and seven home games. They will face the following teams:
- Cleveland Cavaliers (away)
- Utah Jazz (away)
- Memphis Grizzlies (home)
- Dallas Mavericks (home)
- New Orleans Pelicans (home)
- Oklahoma City Thunder (home)
- Denver Nuggets (away)
- Minnesota Timberwolves (home)
- Golden State Warriors (home)
- Sacramento Kings (away)
The Lakers need to start winning games if they want to make the playoffs. They are currently in 13th place in the Western Conference, and they need to finish in the top 10 to make the playoffs.
The Lakers will be counting on their remaining players to step up in the absence of Davis, James, and Russell. They will need to play together as a team and execute their game plan if they want to win games.
