Will Los Angeles' lone two All-Stars suit up for their first playoff game against the Denver Nuggets this year?
Will the Los Angeles Lakers be without All-Stars LeBron James and Anthony Davis be available for tonight's matchup against the Denver Nuggets?, both vets have seen their statuses downgraded to probable heading into the evening's matchup, slated to tip off at 5:30 p.m. PT on ABC.
Davis is dealing with a sore low back , while James continues to manage his left ankle peroneal tendinopathy. Despite these listed issues, one assumes that wild horses couldn't keep either star away from this first round rematch of last year's Western Conference Finals series, during which Denver swept Los Angeles en route to capturing the first title in the Nuggets' history .
Four Lakers have already been ruled out, in addition to their three two-way contract signings . Three of those absences are actually rotation pieces whose lack of availability could hurt LA, although it's hard to expect them to impact things too adversely. Rookie Jalen Hood-Schifino is on the shelf following his recent lumbar disc surgery, while the defense of sidelined forwards Cam Reddish and Jarred Vanderbilt could actually be missed. Big man Christian Wood remains on the shelf, too.
