The Lakers recently experienced a significant win over the Thunder but now face uncertainty as a rematch approaches. Rui Hachimura is definitely out, while key players like LeBron James and Luka Dončić are questionable due to injuries. This situation contrasts sharply with their previous game, where most players were fit. With it being the last back-to-back of the season, the Lakers may prioritize rest for their roster, unsettling fans amid a competitive Western Conference race.
If the Lakers are without their entire starting lineup and their first player off the bench, Dorian Finney-Smith, they will probably get destroyed by the Thunder.
However, playing games on consecutive days is tough, especially with many key Lakers dealing with injuries.
