Lakers Injury Report: Taric Black (foot) is probable to play tonight, and Kobe Bryant (shoulder) is questionable.
Pelicans Injury Report: Tyreke Evans (knee) is unlikely to play against the Lakers.
The Los Angeles Lakers have struggled this season, which also is Kobe Bryant's last. After putting up 38 points against the Timberwolves on Tuesday, it's hopeful that Bryant has a few more good games left in him, though with his shoulder bothering him, Bryant likely will miss a few more upcoming games. Julius Randle, Jordan Clarkson and D'Angelo Russell also had a good game that night, as "all three scored 15 or more points in the same game for just the third time this season."
The New Orleans Pelicans have a good chance at coming out ahead in tonight's game against the Lakers so long as they focus on improving their offensive depth. According to SB Nation, "New Orleans has just one real shot creator on the court in the fourth quarter and it shows with the heavy lifting asked of Jrue Holiday alone." The Pelicans will need to spread out more if they want to take home a much needed win.
