The Los Angeles Lakers continue to dip as they enter another losing streak. They were not able to take victories against the Memphis Grizzlies, Sacramento Kings and Denver Nuggets. This team is now placed 8th in the NBA Western Conference standings with their record at 21-22 and they are currently tied with the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Lakers announced that Anthony Davis will be back from his injury by the end of the month and that means LeBron James will still try to hold the fort. Russell Westbrook is still underperforming and the team needs him to help out.
