The Lakers superstars are both battling injuries. MARTAND BHAGAVATULA 55 MINUTES AGO
As the Lakers are set to square off with the 21-24 Houston Rockets for the fourth and final time this regular season, LeBron James (ankle) and Anthony Davis (Achilles) have both received the “active” designation, per Jovan Buha of The Athletic.
The Lakers will be without Cam Reddish (ankle) and Gabe Vincent (knee) but are otherwise fully healthy as they take on the reeling Rockets.
At 3-7 in their last 10 games, Houston has struggled to stay consistent despite having decent talent across the roster. While they’ll be without some pieces tonight, the likes of Alperen Sengun, Jabari Smith Jr., and Fred VanVleet have all been reliable for them this season.
James and Davis will look to continue their dominance as they’ll individually deal with the matchups of Dillon Brooks and Alperen Sengun.
