After losing to the Phoenix Suns 110-121, the Lakers have been mathematically eliminated from playoff contention.

Westbrook wants to run it back and see what the Lakers could do with improved health. “That’s the plan, but nothing is promised,” Russ said. “Like I said all season long: you gotta play the cards you’re dealt. Yes — we want to be able to see what that looks like, what that entails over the course of an 82-game season. But we’re not sure if that’s guaranteed neither. So, I just hope that we have a chance to be able to do something in the future.”

The 2021-22 Los Angeles Lakers season is effectively over.

A lot will be said about the decision-making from leadership over the next month or so with plenty of finger-pointing to go around. The media blitz could be reminiscent of the reporting about the Lakers following the 2018-19 season, except there likely won’t be a star acquisition to douse those flames.

Looking ahead, the Lakers’ path back to title contention with LeBron James and Anthony Davis anytime soon seems like a low probability scenario. Читать дальше...
