The Los Angeles Lakers need help. Either the front office has to make a trade soon to help the Lakers this season, or scrap this year altogether, focus on keeping LeBron James and Anthony Davis healthy, and try again next year.

Ever since AD’s foot injury, the Lakers have gone 1-2 in their last three. They are now the 13th seed in the West and are slowly risking falling to the point where it would be impossible to salvage the season. The beatdown at Sacramento showed the team what is to come.
They lost 134-120, after trailing by 23 points at one time.
Heading home, the Lakers are preparing to take on Michael Jordan’s team, the Charlotte Hornets. The biggest question on every fan’s mind is whether LeBron James would suit up or not.
LeBron James is listed as Probable for tonight’s matchup
Playing his 20th season, LBJ is making a whole new record, averaging more points than anyone ever has. He’s putting up 27.1 points, 8.4 rebounds, and 6.7 assists a game. He’s had five straight 30+ point games but the Lakers cannot seem ways to capitalize on the same.
The Lakers released their injury report ahead of tonight’s matchup and the King is also present on it. He’s been listed as probable due to his ankle.

However, from Bron’s Instagram stories, there is no doubt that he would suit up tonight and take on LaMelo Ball and the Hornets.
