The Lakers have come to depend on Hachimura, Hayes and Reddish, so their collective absences were felt against the Thunder.\n\nHayes and Reddish were listed as probable for Saturday, while LeBron James was listed as questionable due to a left calf contusion. Vincent remains out.\n\n"It was a tough road trip," Lakers coach Darvin Ham said after the four-game split that included a 44-point loss to the Philadelphia 76ers. "We don't have a 'settle' mentality, but we have to call it like it is. We knew this was going to be tough at the end of a road trip. Our guys fought to the best of their ability.\n\n"Obviously, there are some things we need to clean up, things we could have done better. But we competed, tried our best under the circumstances."\n\nThe inconsistency of those circumstances continues to undermine the Lakers' plan for roster cohesion following an offseason roster overhaul. When the Lakers are whole, or at least something resembling whole, they are solid, as evidenced by their 4-0 finish in group play in the NBA in-season tournament. The Lakers will play the Phoenix Suns in the quarterfinals Tuesday.\n\nNBA 2023-2024\nLos Angeles Lakers \nGolden State Warriors \nMilwaukee Bucks \nBoston Celtics\nPhiladelphia 76ers \nCleveland Cavaliers \nNew York Knicks \nBrooklyn Nets \nMiami Heat \nAtlanta Hawks \nToronto Raptors \nWashington Wizards \nChicago Bulls \nIndiana Pacers \nOrlando Magic \nCharlotte Hornets \nDetroit Pistons \nDenver Nuggets \nMemphis Grizzlies \nSacramento Kings \nPhoenix Suns \nLos Angeles Clippers \nMinnesota Timberwolves \nNew Orleans Pelicans \nOklahoma City Thunder \nDallas Mavericks \nUtah Jazz \nPortland Trail Blazers \nSan Antonio Spurs \nHouston Rockets\n\n#nba #nbalive #lakers #losangeleslakers #warriors #goldenstatewarriors #bucks #milwaukeebucks #celtics #bostonceltics #76ers #philadelphia76ers #cavaliers #clevelandcavaliers #knicks #newyorkknicks #nets #brooklynnets #heat #miamiheat #hawks #atlantahawks #raptors #torontoraptors #wizards #washingtonwizards #bulls #chicagobulls #pacers #indianapacers #magic #orlandomagic #hornets #charlottehornets #pistons #detroitpistons #nuggets #denvernuggets #grizzlies #memphisgrizzlies #kings #sacramentokings #suns #phoenixsuns #clippers #losangelesclippers #timberwolves #minnesotatimberwolves #pelicans #neworleanspelicans #thunder #oklahomacitythunder #mavericks #dallasmavericks #jazz #utahjazz #blazers #portlandtrailblazers #spurs #sanantoniospurs #rockets #houstonrockets \n\nFAIR-USE COPYRIGHT DISCLAIMER : Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, all the videos, songs, images and graphics in the video belong to their respective owners and I or this channel does not claim any right over them.
