Hello, Lakers Nation. Welcome to the Lakers Nation.com podcast. My name's Trevor Lane, and it's game day. Lakers Hornets this afternoon. That's right, not tonight. This afternoon, the Lakers take on the Hornets at 4 p.m. Pacific time. Make sure you come hang out right here on the Lakers Nation.com YouTube channel will be live, doing a little play-by-play, live reaction, all of that.

It's like a party.

Come hang out 4 p.m. Pacific time. Lakers, Hornets, we'll see if the Lakers can get back to their winning ways. On today's show, I want to get into what the Lakers need to do in order to get a win. We'll also take a look at the injury report. frankly this is going to be a fairly short show because for all the X's and O's that

we could break down. It really comes down to just one thing for the Lakers for this one this

afternoon. All right. Let's dive into it. Let's talk a little bit about the injury report and what

the Lakers have cooking tonight and who they'll have available.

So right now, the Lakers on their official injury report have Austin Reeves,

the big news, listed as questionable for tonight's game.

Certainly would be nice.

I mean, the Lakers have talked about it, but six of their first 10 games,

there's seven and three, which is remarkable, frankly, but six of their first 10,

the Lakers have been missing at least two, minimum of two of their top three players

for six of their first 10 games.

When we talk about LeBron James, Austin Reeves, and Luca Donchich.

LeBron James has played in zero games, and we've seen Austin miss the most recent stretch of games here.

Luca Donchich missed some games as well.

In fact, Luca and Austin have only played together in four games of the first 10, and LeBron James has played in zero.

And when you take that perspective, when you think about that,

if you told me that going into the season and you asked me, what would the Lakers record be

if Luca and Austin played together in just four games and LeBron played at zero, I would

not predict they would be seven and three. I can tell you that. So from that perspective, it's fairly remarkable what the Lakers have done so far,

the record that they have right now to be seven and three through their first 10.
