The Lakers kick off the post All-Star portion of the schedule tonight in a make up game against the Charlotte Hornets at the Crypt.

"Anthony Davis LeBron's Return New Starting Lineup Fuel a Big Lakers Win Over Pelicans The Lakers needed a win in basically every way on Wednesday at home vs. New Orleans. They needed it in the standings where a loss would push them even further behind one of the teams they're trying to track down. They needed it mentally because heading into the All Star break on consecutive losses would be a tough thing to sit on. And with all that on the line they got it and in rather impressive fashion too. 120-102 in a game they started hot and finished strong. And speaking of starting Darvin Ham shook up"

"Is LeBron James Going to Sign His Extension with the Lakers And Anthony Davis is Shooting Again Anthony Davis was back at the facility Tuesday working with the famous/infamous "Lethal Shooter" a somewhat controversial shooting coach who has worked with a bunch of NBA players including some current Lakers. So you now have a fairly comical situation where fans were upset that he hadn't been shooting and now are upset at who he's shooting with. And meanwhile LeBron James famous for subtweeting teammates on a variety of issues has spent the week posting to social media all kinds of excited"

Meanwhile though LeBron James had his two-decade streak of All-Star nods snapped and it's an open question as to whether he'll eventually make the team. or even if he wants to in his heart of hearts. The numbers put him on the bubble or pretty close to it at least. And there's time to burnish the resume if that's what it takes."

"Off-Night for Luka Doni But Deandre Ayton Lakers DEFENSE Fuel STRONG TEAM WIN This was a game the Lakers really needed. Not just that they beat the Toronto Raptors Sunday at Crypto.com 110-93 but the way they got it done. This was as balanced a team effort as the Lakers have had in a long while. Luka Doni (25 points seven assists) wasn't bad but he wasn't dominant. LeBron James (24 points seven dimes) continued a solid stretch of play but wasn't turn-back-the-clock dominant. What the Lakers got was a spectacular performance from Deandre Ayton (25 points 10-10 from the floor to go with 13"

"No Luka Reaves Ayton Hayes: INJURIES CONTINUE HURTING Lakers in Loss to Blazers Some games are borderline unwinnable assuming the opponent shows up to play. Portland did and without Luka Doni Deandre Ayton Jaxson Hayes and (of course) Austin Reaves the Lakers were simply down too much talent. The end result was predictable-- the available players put out a good effort and ultimately it didn't matter. Final score 132-116. The Lakers are now sliding dangerously close to play-in territory and with a game Sunday against the Raptors could be in that section of the standings before the weekend is"

"Lakers DEFENSE TOTALLY COLLAPSES in Loss Despite [--] Points from Luka Doncic Luka Doni was 15-26 en route to [--] points. LeBron James was efficient scoring [--] points on 10-19 from the floor. So [--] points on good percentages from the two stars a very low turnover number (nine). and yet the Lakers still lost to the visiting Charlotte Hornets by [--]. Final score 135-117.

"Rich Paul SUGGESTS TRADE Involving Lakers Austin Reaves. OUT OF BOUNDS During his "Game Over" podcast with Max Kellerman Klutch CEO (and LeBron James' agent) floated a hypothetical trade that would send Austin Reaves to the Memphis Grizzlies in exchange for Jaren Jackson Jr. Needless to say (even if Paul would claim otherwise) this created quite a stir with LeBron distancing himself from the fray Reaves' agent talking with Paul at Tuesday's Lakers game and Paul trying to downplay this as anything particularly odd. Even though it clearly is. Rich Paul Austin Reaves Jaren Jackson Jr. trade"

"Lakers BOUNCE BACK Behind 31/9/10 from LeBron [--] From Luka Beat Hawks 141-116 The lid finally came off the hoop. The Lakers who couldn't have been colder Monday night in Sacramento hada completely different experience against the Hawks on Tuesday. They were red hot from the floor scoring [--] points in the first half and despite a horrible third quarter in which they allowed what had been a 32-point half was more than halved they found their footing again in the final quarter and won going away 141-116. The Lakers were led by LeBron Jamesplaying both ends of a back-to-back for the first time"

"Luka Doncic SCORES [--] but Lakers AWFUL SHOOTING DEFENSE Dooms Them Vs. Kings. When the Lakers lose they lose loud. Monday in Sacramento though was a screamer. Playing a team tied for the worst in the Western Conference the Lakers feel behind early and couldn't really threaten to complete the comeback. Final score 124-112. Statistically the Kings benefitted from a shockingly good shooting night from the perimeter making 17-26 (65%). DeMar DeRozan who didn't take a three was 14-19 from the floor. Meanwhile the Lakers were a [---] man band. Luka Doni kept them afloat for a while and finished with"

"Rui Hachimura BACK FROM INJURY COMING OFF BENCH Permanent move for Lakers The Lakers get a big lift Monday night. Rui Hachimura is off the injury report entirely and barring some sort of late setback will be back in the lineup Monday night in Sacramento. No surprise given the time he was out but JJ Redick said Sunday he'd be on a minutes restriction and come off the bench. The big question for Lakers fans is whether this is just temporary or if the minutes restriction is the entry point Redick will use to do the thing he should have been doing anyway: Bring Hachimura off the bench. We've been"

"Luka Doncic STRUGGLES TO MAKE SHOTS FOULS OUT in FRUSTATING Lakers Loss to Bucks For most of the night the Lakers looked like they weren't going to have a chance to win. then all of a sudden they not only had a chance but found themselves up four with three minutes to play. From there though they couldn't extend the comeback. Giannis poked the ball away from LeBron James on the final trip and the Lakers lose 105-101. It's the first clutch time loss of the year for the purple and gold and it came largely because Luka Doni had likely his worst game as a Laker finishing 8-25 from the floor and"

"How the TRAE YOUNG TRADE Giannis COMMITTING TO BUCKS Affects Lakers Trade Market It's only early January but we've already seen the first big deal of the year as Trae Young was sent to Washington. Giannis says he's not asking out in Milwaukee and the Bucks are reportedly trying to find ways to improve. Yep we're in the thick of it. For the Lakers it's a tricky proposition. With [--] wins they're among the league leaders. But their [--] losses have all been by (famously at this point) double digits. So their flaws are pretty clear. So what's available to help address them ESPN on Thursday put out"

"38 POINT TRIPLE-DOUBLE for Luka Doncic NOT ENOUGH SUPPORT in Shorthanded Lakers loss. It's hard to fault the effort but the Lakerswho added LeBron James to the list of guys in street clothes to go along with Austin Reaves and Rui Hachimuraultimately were out-talented Wednesday night in San Antonio. Final score 107-71. It was a sloppy game for sure but the Lakers did what they could to stay in it. What they needed though was a night where the whole team shoots well from downtown offense came from surprising sources or maybe both. Those things didn't happen so the Lakers were essentially left"

"Luka Doncic LeBron James Each SCORE [--] vs. Pelicans Lakers UNDEFEATED IN CLUTCHTIME It wasn't a work of art but it was enough to get the job done. After being outplayed in the third quarter the Lakers entered the fourth down seven in their visit to New Orleans against the Pelicans. At that point LeBron James took over looking extremely spry as he put on an offensive show (including one steal and finish at the other end). Luka Doni hit a pair of improbable 3's late and the defense held down the Pels en route to a 111-103 win. Overall it was probably LeBron's strongest game of the year"
