It was a rough night overall for the Lakers, who lost Anthony Davis in the first quarter to what the team is calling an abdominal strain. Gabe Vincent, the team’s backup point guard, missed his second straight game with a left knee injury, necessitating Bronny’s addition to the rotation.

The Los Angeles Lakers are scheduled to take on the Washington Wizards tonight as they continue their long road trip. However, the team will be without one of their star players as center Anthony Davis will miss this game.

Anthony Davis left the Lakers' game against Philadelphia on Tuesday in the first half with an abdominal muscle strain. Davis walked to the locker room with his right hand over his stomach when he left with 2:10 to go in the first quarter.

The Lakers' players would love to see a trade that bolsters the roster, but they acknowledge that most moves are complex and expensive.

Even though there's a need for depth, people around the league think that the Lakers may not go all in at the deadline.

The Los Angeles Lakers are fifth in the Western Conference, but if they go after a reported trade target, they could have more than enough size to tackle the Denver Nuggets.
