Suns:
Beal is probable.
Booker out.

Lakers:
Anthony Davis and Jaxson Hayes are questionable.
Vanderbilt and Vincent out.

Expect LeBrick to be at the FT line 30 times. The Lakers sent a complaint to the league about how they're officiating LeBrick

I just expect Eric Gordon and Goodwin to play as little as possible

Ready to get my retinas obliterated by the court.

KD drops a 40 piece, and Lebron trades somebody away.

Make it happen.

Lakers star Anthony Davis (hip/groin) has been upgraded to probable to play vs. Suns tonight in In-Season Tournament game.

Nurkic ....

nurk should focus on playing defense, rebounding, passing and screening

if he forces himself to score on davis, he will fail miserably (take the easy ones if theyre there, but theyre not really easy for nurk)

also, he should let davis score a few buckets and not defend him every time, cause he will end up in foul trouble, but knowing nurk, he aint gonna let him score, he will try to defend him even if it means fouling out in the 3rd quarter lol

Booker and Beal should both be playing by now. I'm tired of this crap already.

Yep.He'll shoot 10+ FT's minimum.I'm expecting the whole Lakers team to shoot 30+ from the charity stripe.In fact, I wouldn't be shocked if AD shot 15+ alone.They get a great whistle.Not to mention the supreme foul baiting Austin Reaves.Glad I have to work, so I won't be able to watch the game tonight.I hate playing the Lakers

Trying to scoop up last minutes tix via OfferUp.

Holy hell is that thing LITTERED with attempted Ticketmaster scams.

Wasn't there some talk that the Lakers were gonna try and limit Lebron's minutes to like high 20's lol? He's basically at his post-35yo season averages at 34.8mpg

Did Booker show any injury signs at all in that ONE game he returned?

Better now as opposed to April though, right?

I figured Booker would play this game since it is the in-season tournament game, but perhaps the front office wants to keep their eyes on the long-term prize and win a championship instead.

Nah he looked fine, I’m sure he could play now if it was the finals. No point rushing it right now

I think Beal would have been playing too if it was the playoffs...Think the injury concerns atm are a little overblown...just playing it safe...It's the beginning of the season and have a long way to go... Also I think it's great for our bench/role players to get minutes and establish themselves...

It's a long season. No point trying to gut it out, possibly do more damage and be out for even longer than the precautionary period. We're at .500 now with only KD being the only healthy guy so it could be worse, it could be better for sure. But again, I'd rather be 4-4 and being cautious than seeing them play through injuries just for a 7-1 record. At the end of the season, no one is gonna care about our record 8 games into the season

Of course now better than later, but the fact this is even an issue is a problem. We're heavily invested and reliant on their output and our subpar record to this point is reflected in their lack of court time.

I hope that they'll all be on the floor together soon.

At first glance I really like these "El Valle" unis.

Breh....Our court looks like its a Lakers home game...

Already back to Durant turning the ball over via bad reads and passes.
