Suddenly! The Lakers suffered another heavy blow! After James, Doncic also fell due to injury

Basketball

Injuries are more severe than tigers! When I woke up, the sky for the Los Angeles Lakers could be said to have completely collapsed! Well, now, LeBron James has not returned from injury to make his first show of the season. The fans who were waiting for Dong James to be reunited are now waiting for the bad news that the star Luka Doncic also fell due to injury. That is really a "tragic" word!

On October 27, according to well-known ESPN reporter Shams, Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Doncic will be absent for at least a week. The reason was that Doncic suffered a sprained finger on his left hand and a contusion on his left calf.

Subsequently, NBA reporter Dave McMenamin added that Luka Doncic will undergo injury re-evaluation in about a week. As a result, this means that Doncic will miss at least the Lakers' games this week against the Sacramento Kings, Portland Trail Blazers, Minnesota Timberwolves and Memphis Grizzlies. There is no doubt that the Lakers, who do not have Doncic and James at the same time, are bound to be in trouble, and the possibility of a four-game losing streak is not even ruled out.

Just two games into the season, star Luka Doncic suddenly suffered a double injury of a sprained finger and a contusion of his calf. This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the Los Angeles Lakers! Losing the backbone of Doncic, and the fact that James won't be back for a while, is simply adding insult to injury.

Next, Austin Reeves really became the only "thigh" in the Lakers. If he can't shoulder this glorious and arduous task, I can't imagine what the Lakers will do in the next game? Perhaps, the Lakers will suffer a four-game losing streak at the beginning of the season.

In the past two games, Luka Doncic has performed at MVP levels! In the opening game against the Golden State Warriors, Doncic played 40 minutes and 59 seconds, making 17 of 27 shots, 2 of 10 three-pointers, 7 of 10 free throws, scoring 43 points, 12 rebounds, 9 assists, 2 steals and 1 block. In the next game against the Minnesota Timberwolves, Doncic played another 34 minutes and 54 seconds, making 14 of 23 shots, 5 of 12 three-pointers, 16 of 19 free throws, and scored 49 points, 11 rebounds, and 8 assists.

He played a total of 75 minutes and 53 seconds in two games, scoring 92 points, 23 rebounds, 17 assists, 2 steals and 1 shot. Doncic was really exhausted! But even though Doncic worked so hard, the Lakers only achieved a record of 1 win and 1 loss.

Obviously, Luka Doncic has been in super hot form since the start of the game! But unfortunately, no matter how hot Doncic's condition is, so what? The Lakers now have to accept the sad fact that Doncic will not play in the game for the time being.

In this way, the Lakers will also face the first super test of the new season. How will they calmly cope with the game without Doncic and James? This will be a huge problem that Lakers head coach JJ Redick must face and solve immediately! Whether Austin Reeves can bravely shoulder this heavy responsibility, and whether other Lakers can step up in time to share the team's pressure, we will see the truth in the next week.

Of course, Luka Doncic's sudden collapse due to injury must have sounded a wake-up call to head coach Redick, that is, he must use Luka Doncic scientifically and rationally. Otherwise, this will definitely plant a time bomb for the Los Angeles Lakers' championship plan in the new season! LeBron James will be 41 years old at the end of the year, so the Lakers cannot completely rely on James to change his destiny without Doncic as they did in the past. Therefore, the Lakers can only make sure that Doncic and James can stay healthy at the same time, then they can achieve great things this season!

Let us pray for Luka Doncic! I hope Doncic can recover soon and return to the game! Come on, Luka Doncic! Hang in there, Los Angeles Lakers!
