Good News:The Lakers might receive assistance before their six-game road…
It’s been reported that the Los Angeles Lakers may have guard Gabe Vincent rejoin the team before the conclusion of their upcoming six-game road trip, potentially giving him the opportunity to play during this period.
The guard’s status has been a major question mark at times this season, but it appears some clarity may be coming.
Vincent has played in just five games this season, with four of those games coming all the way back in October, the first month of the 2023-24 regular season.But Vincent’s most recent appearance with the Lakers came shortly before Christmas on Dec. 20, when Los Angeles played the Chicago Bulls and lost by a final score of 124-108.Currently, the Lakers are heading into a lengthy road trip on a three-game winning streak. During the streak in question, Los Angeles has earned wins against the Atlanta Hawks, Philadelphia 76ers and Indiana Pacers.
The team had one of its more impressive offensive performances of the season in its most recent win over the Pacers on March 24. The Lakers scored an unbelievable 150 points while shooting 56.2 percent from the field and 48.0 percent from 3-point range as a team.Plus, four players — Anthony Davis, LeBron James, Spencer Dinwiddie and Austin Reaves — scored 25 or more points for the Lakers. Davis finished with a team-high 36 points on 15-of-21 shooting from the floor and 1-of-2 shooting from deep while also chipping in 16 rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block.
