The reason behind this is due to left foot soreness. <\/p>\n<p>Russell was injured in their previous game against the Houston Rockets last Sunday. He only played 15 minutes of that game before being sidelined by his injury.<\/p>\n<p>The timing couldn&#8217;t be worse. According to multiple sources, the LA Lakers are 5-0 with Anthony Davis, LeBron James, and D&#8217;Angelo Russell as a trio. Given how the Lakers only have four games remaining, the team is in desperate need of their undefeated trio to be able to potentially secure the sixth seed in the Western Conference. Hopefully, LA can get the job done without Russell.<\/p>\n<p><template id=\"bets-today-poll\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"preview-card-holder bets-today-poll\">\n<p><span class=\"date\"\/> \u2022 <span class=\"time\"\/><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h2>Can the LA Lakers secure the sixth seed?<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sk-app-thumbnail\" alt=\"Los Angeles Lakers v Chicago Bulls\" src=\"https:\/\/staticc.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2023\/04\/dd648-16806543322250-1920.jpg\"\/><\/noscript><img class=\"lazy-img\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" data-img=\"https:\/\/staticc.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2023\/04\/dd648-16806543322250-1920.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staticc.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2023\/04\/dd648-16806543322250-1920.jpg?w=720 720w ,https:\/\/staticc.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2023\/04\/dd648-16806543322250-1920.jpg?w=840 840w, https:\/\/staticc.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2023\/04\/dd648-16806543322250-1920.jpg?w=1200 1200w , https:\/\/staticc.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2023\/04\/dd648-16806543322250-1920.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 720w,(max-width: 420px) 840w,(max-width: 600px) 1200w, 1920w\" alt=\"Los Angeles Lakers v Chicago Bulls\" data-img-low=\"https:\/\/staticc.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2023\/04\/dd648-16806543322250-1920.jpg\" bad-src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,&lt;svg%20xmlns=%22http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%201920%201280%22&gt;&lt;\/svg&gt;\"\/><figcaption>Los Angeles Lakers v Chicago Bulls<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>With only four games remaining in their season, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/basketball\/los-angeles-lakers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">LA Lakers<\/a> (40-38) are running out of time to clinch a playoff spot this year. However, not all hope is lost for the team yet. The Lakers are currently ranked seventh in the West. The team is only 0.5 games behind the LA Clippers (41-38) and Golden State Warriors (41-38).<\/p>\n<p>If the Clippers and Warriors somehow lose both their games, the Lakers will automatically climb up the ladder. The Purple and Gold also have the opportunity to secure their playoff spot by simply beating the Utah Jazz in their upcoming matchup on Tuesday. But that&#8217;s easier said than done.<\/p>\n<p>The LA Lakers have ruled out their star point guard <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/basketball\/dangelo-russell\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">D&#8217;Angelo Russell<\/a> due to a left sore foot. LA has been undefeated with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/basketball\/anthony-davis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Anthony Davis<\/a>, LeBron James, and Russell as a trio. However, that doesn&#8217;t mean AD and LBJ can&#8217;t get the job done. Both superstars are coming off an impeccable outing from last Sunday&#8217;s game against the Houston Rockets.<\/p>\n<p>Anthony Davis came up big, putting up 40 points, nine rebounds and two blocks. Assisting him in securing the win on Sunday was none other than the &#8220;King&#8221; himself. LeBron James had an incredible evening as well. He delivered a triple-double with 18 points, 11 assists and 10 rebounds. Hopefully, the dynamic duo can pick up from where they left off.<\/p>\n<div id=\"tag-cloud\">\n<div class=\"tags-text\">\n<div class=\"scrollable-content-holder  article-padding\">\n<p class=\"article-p  \">Quick Links<\/p>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerLeft\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Left \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"background: none;\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-left.svg\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button><\/p>\n<nav id=\"pnProductNav\" class=\"pn-ProductNav\">\n<\/nav>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerRight\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Right \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"background: none;\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-right.svg\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<p>More from Sportskeeda<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><template id=\"reply-input-template\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"reply-section-container\" parent-comment-id=\"\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"pic-near-reply-box\" src=\"\" alt=\"Profile picture\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\"\/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><br \/>\n<template id=\"gif-box-template\"><\/p>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><template id=\"reply-input-template\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"reply-section-container\" parent-comment-id=\"\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"pic-near-reply-box\" src=\"\" alt=\"Profile picture\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\"\/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><br \/>\n<template id=\"gif-box-template\"><\/p>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script> \nvar fbPixelFired = false;\ndocument.addEventListener(\"scroll\", function() { loadFBPixel() });\ndocument.addEventListener(\"mousemove\", function() { loadFBPixel() });\nfunction loadFBPixel() {\nif(fbPixelFired) {\nreturn;\n}\nfbPixelFired = true;\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod? \nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\nn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, \ndocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '952063904834769'); \nfbq('track', \"PageView\");\nfbq('track', 'ViewContent');\n}\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/basketball\/news-d-angelo-russell-injury-update-25-million-la-lakers-star-ruled-critical-game-against-the-jazz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LA Lakers guard D&#8217;Angelo Russell has been ruled out of their game against the Utah Jazz on Tuesday night.
