The Lakers, amidst their most exciting season in several years, endured a no-good, very bad series of events this weekend.
Los Angeles was run off the court during a Friday night showcase against the defending champion Thunder. In the process the Lakers lost both Luka Dončić and Austin Reaves to injury. Dončić suffered a hamstring issue that forced him out in the third quarter and an MRI on Sunday revealed Reaves had an oblique injury. The two stars were immediately declared out for the remainder of the regular season and subsequent reports stated they could both miss up to six weeks in recovery.
