Los Angeles Lakers vs Detroit Pistons

Venue:	Crypto.com Arena
Prediction:	Los Angeles Lakers
Bookmaker:	1xbet

 

The Lakers in the upcoming week’s schedule could boost the team. After Sunday’s victory over the Nets, the Lakers will take a break from the season before hosting the Pistons on Saturday.

However, three injuries made the break very convenient. LeBron James’ adductor injury kept him out of the weekend’s two games, but he could return Friday as he is considered a day job.

Meanwhile, Dennis Schroder and Thomas Bryant could use a week of practice to improve their game and potentially make their debuts against Detroit.

Both were re-evaluated late last week, and while neither is far from returning to action, they can continue training. Both were injured in the preseason, and neither played in the regular season this year.

Saturday, then, could be a big day for the duo to return, the two look set to join the rotation for that game. Still, all signs point to getting two rotation players as the Lakers gear up for their next game.
