NBA (DR)
With their backs against the wall, the Lakers will try to achieve the impossible and reverse their series against the Nuggets, in which they are currently trailing 1-3.
As Game 5 dawns, new information could give Californians something to continue to hope for.
Like last year, the Lakers are having great difficulty bringing down the Nuggets.
But unlike the 11 previous meetings between the two franchises, the Purple & Gold managed to defeat their opponents during Game 4 of their confrontation this Saturday.
Enough to leave yourself the possibility of achieving an unprecedented feat, namely winning a series of playoffs after being down 0-3.
And even if most Angelino fans struggle to believe in the miracle and already seem resigned, others who are more optimistic remain hopeful.
And it is not the latest information linked to the franchise which risks bringing them down.
Indeed, a few hours before a dangerous Game 5 in Denver, a major reinforcement could join Darvin Ham’s rotation and provide proud service on the floor of the Ball Arena.
Still reasons for hope for the Lakers?
Absent since the beginning of February due to a right foot injury, Jarred Vanderbilt seemed set to make his return a few days ago, which LeBron James was delighted with .
In the end, he could take part in Game 5, he who is now announced “questionable” in the injury report. Alongside this, sadder information for the Nuggets, but one that would suit LA’s business, also surfaced:
Nuggets Injury Update: Jamal Murray is dealing with a strained left calf. He is officially considered doubtful for Game 5 this Monday.
Anything but spared from injuries throughout his career, Jamal Murray could therefore miss the upcoming meeting. And although unfortunate to say, this would represent a significant boon for the Lakers, who have struggled so much to contain him until now.
The proof is his game-winner in Game 2. It remains to be seen whether the Canadian leader will prove capable of overcoming the pain.
While the return of Jarred Vanderbilt is awaited on the Lakers side, it could take place as early as Game 5 this Monday against the Nuggets.
The latter could be deprived of Jamal Murray, which their opponents are unlikely to complain about.
