The great tank war tonight between the Los Angeles Lakers and Chicago Bulls got even more tanktastic with the news of Tuesday morning.
ESPN’s Malika Andrews reports that the Bulls will be without leading scorer Zach LaVine, who is dealing with a sore knee.
If the Lakers are hoping to lose this game, it just got a lot tougher seeing as the Bulls will likely have a lot of trouble scoring points without LaVine. They also may receive a boost from the return of Kyle Kuzma, who is questionable to return from an ankle injury.
However, if the Lakers are hoping to end their current five-game skid, tonight is likely the best night to do it as they will face playoff teams or borderline playoff teams for the remainder of this Eastern Conference road trip.
