The Lakers are in danger of being eliminated from the NBA playoffs, and that could happen on Tuesday night if two conditions are satisfied
. Los Angeles has been in the danger zone for several weeks as it struggled during the latter half of the regular season, losing 13 of 16 March contests, partially due to two stars being sidelined for a significant period. Prior to Friday’s 129–118 loss to the Pelicans, LeBron James and Anthony Davis hadn’t played together since before the All-Star break. Davis had missed the previous 18 games with a mid-foot sprain, and has been absent for 39 games this season.
Both played on Friday; however, Davis remained in the lineup for the next game while James sat out Sunday and will do the same on Tuesday night.
