LBJ & WESTBROOK QUESTIONABLE

Per Trudell

Lakers injury report update:

LeBron James (left knee) and Russell Westbrook (lower back tightness) are listed as questionable tonight.  

Both will go through on-court work before the game to determine if they’ll play at Portland.

He's been listed once or twice before (actually I think just once) but then ended up playing. So if he actually stays out…dundunduuuuuuuun. Lol

ON THAT NOTE - RUSS

Per Oram

The natural instinct is to be conspiratorial about a new injury designation for Russ 24 hours before the trade deadline, but I'm told his back started acting up during the game last night and flared up again on the flight to PDX. Team still hopes he can play, but that's TBD.

LBJ DWIGHT PLAY - WESTBROOK NOT PLAY

Per Trudell

LeBron and Dwight Howard are both active tonight.

Russell Westbrook (low back tightness) is out. It’ll be his first missed game this season.

Earned the right to finish games…but I’m injured and can’t play. Ok. Trade speculation continue….

Meanwhile, John Wall isn’t a spring chicken or a superstar and won’t fix anything.

Imo Russ > Wall talent wise. But he was once an all-defensive player, and he did average 20.6/6.9 last year. So if they view Westbrook as unplayable at least they get a guy who is probably going to be happier with his role instead of getting nothing. They may feel they are better off with Wall not being a malcontent than with Russ being a distraction.

HE SAYS HES OK - JUST TI-TI (tired)

Per Trudell

LeBron said his knee was a little sore when he got grabbed by Winslow in transition in the first half, and it impacted him for a couple of plays, but it was OK after that, and it didn’t have an impact from that point on.

https://twitter.com/lakersreporter/status/1491656838382637059?s=21

LeBron: “I’m tired as hell right now.”

He continued: “Mental fatigue is always a part of a season … it’s even more fatigue when you’re losing ballgames."

With that said: “I never get to the point where I’m out of it ... I’m not worried about that."

NO NEW LAKERS FOR NOW

Per Oram

I’m told not to expect any last minute deals for the Lakers. Despite several efforts, they were unable to get anything done before the deadline. This is their team.

https://twitter.com/billoram/status/1491864735519686661?s=21


Per Woj

No deal for the Lakers, source tells ESPN. THey'll focus on the buyout market.

https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/1491865847484366852?s=21


Per McTen

The Lakers will monitor the buyout market, sources told ESPN. With a full 15-man roster, would need to waive a player in order to add a player.

https://twitter.com/mcten/status/1491866260350464001?s=21


Per Goon

A person who works for a rival team told me yesterday that the Lakers were in a tough spot because they had little to offer and teams weren’t especially eager to help them out. And that’s what played out at the deadline, despite the incredibly obvious need for a shakeup.

what's the word on Nunn TD?


Nothing really. All they've been saying for the past maybe three weeks is that he is ramping up his workload and they'll show video of him working out and he does look more mobile, but then they say he still "a ways away" from actually playing.

PELINKA ON NUNN

Apparently Pelinka is doing a press conference right now.

Per Trudell

Pelinka mentioned Kendrick Nunn’s possible return in late March as one way to improve, and cited the buyout market as an area the Lakers still hope to find some talent, citing the acquisition of Markieff Morris in 2020, which helped them towards their title run.

WESTBROOK "POSSIBLE"

Per Turner

Vogel said Russell Westbrook possible to play vs Warriors. Missed game with lower back tightness at Potland

https://twitter.com/ba_turner/status/1492252805012201472?s=21


Per Goon

Frank Vogel says Russell Westbrook "moved around pretty well" today in practice in San Francisco. It's possible he plays tomorrow. No official status set yet.

LBJ AND DWIGHT "LIKELY"

Per Trudell

Carmelo Anthony is the least likely to play at GSW on Saturday, per Frank Vogel.

Sounds like LeBron and Dwight Howard are both in position to play.

WESTBROOK EXPLANATION ON HIS BACK

Hmm

Per Goon

Russell Westbrook said he felt discomfort in his back against Milwaukee, and adds that part of the issue is that he's not accustomed "to sitting down for long stretches".

https://twitter.com/kylegoon/status/1492258626261557248?s=21


Per Trudell

Russell Westbrook said his back tighness has been something that’s come and gone this season, but it got especially stiff during the Milwaukee game.

Sounds like it felt better today than earlier this week, but he’ll “see how I feel in the morning” before determining game status.

https://twitter.com/lakersreporter/status/1492258784009457668?s=21

RUSS' FULL QUOTE - NOTE AT LINK

Sounds a bit better in context

Per Faigen

Here is the full quote from Russell Westbrook, his back injury, and sitting for a long time making it worse:

PRELIM INJURY REPORT - INJURY DOWNGRADES

Per Buha

Carmelo Anthony is out tomorrow at Golden State, per the Lakers.

LeBron James (left knee soreness/effusion) and Russell Westbrook (lower back tightness) are questionable.

Anthony Davis (left wrist soreness) and Dwight Howard (lower back tightness) are probable.

https://twitter.com/jovanbuha/status/1492279908386574336?s=21


Per Ward (press release at link)

Lakers rule out Carmelo Anthony vs. Warriors as expected. LeBron James and Russell Westbrook are QUESTIONABLE. Anthony Davis and Dwight Howard are PROBABLE.

IFTOS - NO REAL CHANGES FOR WARRIORS

Several of their players are doing every other game/no B2B so they made sure everyone who can be available today is available.

Per Slater

Andre Iguodala remains out against the Lakers tomorrow night. Otto Porter returns to the lineup. No surprises on the Warriors’ side of the injury report.

Here is the Lakers’ side (Links to Jovan's tweet from yesterday )

THEY PLAY

Per Buha

Frank Vogel said that LeBron James, Russell Westbrook and Dwight Howard are all expected to play tonight.

https://twitter.com/jovanbuha/status/1492650496342913025?s=21

Trudell's interpretation is slightly different 🤔

Per Trudell

LeBron James and Dwight Howard are both good to go tonight, and Frank Vogel said he expects that Russell Westbrook (back soreness) should be available to play as well.

MELO A POSSIBILITY

Per Turner

“Not out of question” that Carmelo Anthony comes back for Lakers vs Jazz, per Frank Vogel. Anthony out with hamstring injury

https://twitter.com/ba_turner/status/1493341732510912514?s=21


Per Oram

Frank Vogel was asked whether Carmelo Anthony, out with a hamstring strain, could have made a difference in close losses to Portland and GSW. “We have missed Carmelo Anthony. … I definitely think those two games could have been different.”
