The Los Angeles Lakers have been awful without LeBron James and Rajon Rondo. If that wasn’t bad enough; Kyle Kuzma has been out for the past two games as well. They were not able to win a game last week.
Injuries have hampered the Lakers in recent weeks with several players missing multiple games due to injury this year. Kyle Kuzma is the most recent victim of the “injury bug”.
The Los Angeles Lakers are currently sitting in 6th place, with a record of 21-16, 3.5 GB of 1st place. However, the Lakers do not have LeBron for at least one more game. The young guys, led by Brandon Ingram and Kyle Kuzma need to continue stepping up and taking over games in LeBron’s absence.
Christmas is a time for family togetherness because school and work are canceled as it’s given a federal holiday for everyone including non-celebrators. NBA games on Christmas have become a tradition even for non-NBA fans because it’s the one day where all the games are nationally televised on ABC, ESPN or TNT while also being easily accessible on online platforms. The NBA is smart to market this way because it attracts a large number of viewers as they also showcase new special Christmas Day jerseys for each team involved and let the players involved design special Christmas day sneakers with unique colorways.
Welcome Back, hoop heads! We are already into the third week of December and the NBA season, for most teams, is already beginning to take shape for better or worse. Some teams are still fighting the injury bug and others are just losing the fight. We take a deeper look into some of the must-see game this week as we get ready for a slew of games Christmas Day.
Apparently, Phoenix Suns Forward Trevor Ariza isn’t the only player the Lakers have their eyes on, according to Sean Deveney of Sporting News. As Deveney details in his latest piece, the Lakers have been eyeing Miami Heat guard Wayne Ellington as they look to surround Lebron James with shooters.

A look back on the Los Angeles Lakers dismantling of the Phoenix Suns on Sunday. Look out Western Conference. They are hitting their stride and should get Rondo back in a few weeks.
The Los Angeles Lakers and Denver Nuggets will meet for the second time this year, with the Lakers getting the W in their earlier match-up this season. Denver was victorious when the sides played each other in preseason, however. While they allowed Los Angeles to dominate the first half, the Nuggets were able to fight back from an 18 point deficit at the start of the second half. Poorly timed turnovers and fouls late in the game gave them just enough to escape with a 113-111 win.
Hope everyone had a great Holiday and had a chance to catch some of the exciting NBA action that was on over the last week. We had buzzer beaters, comeback wins and everything else in-between. This week should be equally exciting as we get into the key part of the NBA regular season as teams start to take shape and look to position themselves for playoff seeding.
LeBron James will make his return to Cleveland tonight. This will be his first visit to Quicken Loans Arena since joining the Los Angeles Lakers in free agency this past summer. LeBron was booed mercilessly in his first return game against the Cleveland Cavaliers as a member of the Miami Heat in 2010. His return this time is sure to be different for one big reason, LeBron kept his promise.
The Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat were both coming off losses going into Sunday night’s game. The Heat had just lost a close one against the Indiana Pacers, while the Lakers had gotten blown out by the Orlando Magic the night before this match-up. This was LeBron James’ first encounter with Miami Heat in a Lakers uniform. However, the game was a heavily one-sided affair.
