UPDATE: Lakers Drop Bad News on Luka Doncic Injury Front.THANHDUNG

The shorthanded Los Angeles Lakers dropped more bad news on the injury front as they listed Luka Doncic out for Friday’s critical match against the Denver Nuggets, the second night of a back-to-back schedule and the finale of their four-game road trip.

The Lakers labeled Doncic’s absence as left calf injury management and right ankle sprain. Doncic matched his season-high 45 points on Thursday, March 13, in Milwaukee, but it was not enough to prevent the Lakers from absorbing their third straight loss.

The Bucks overwhelmed the undermanned Lakers 126-106. Another loss and a Houston Rockets win over the injury-hit Dallas Mavericks would drop the Lakers to fifth place in the loaded Western Conference.

The Lakers’ injury list doesn’t stop with Doncic as Gabe Vincent (left knee injury management) and Dorian Finney-Smith (left ankle injury management) are doubtful. At the same time, Trey Jemison III (illness) is questionable against the Nuggets.

They are already without their starting frontcourt of LeBron James (left groin strain) and Rui Hachimura (left patellar tendinopathy) and Jaxson Hayes (right knee contusion).

With their spate of injuries, the Lakers are 6.0 underdogs against the Nuggets at Wildz.
