Five games into the end of the regular season, the Los Angeles Lakers suffered another loss to the Pelicans, their fifth in a row, and they are increasingly anxious in the battle to qualify to play.
LeBron James (38 points) and Anthony Davis (23 points, 12 rebounds) came back from injury, but they weren’t able to lead the team to the victory that will be crucial to bringing the Lakers closer to the positions (between 7 and 10) that allow access. To the preliminary round for play-off matches.
This scenario was exacerbated by the victory of Spurs (32 wins, 45 losses) who finished 10th in the Western Conference, ahead of the Lakers (31 weeks, 46 days).
Portuguese quarterback Nemeas Quetta was an underused substitute at the Sacramento Kings that beat the Rockets, in Houston, and still fuels the dream of getting into play — following the Lakers, 12th, with 29 wins and 49 losses.
