Injury
Luka Dončić is set to miss the Lakers’ remaining first-round games against the Rockets due to a hamstring injury, as reported by Shams Charania. With a 3-1 lead, the Lakers are focusing on advancing without their star, relying on a collective effort to secure the series. Dončić’s return is anticipated no earlier than the Western Conference semifinals, should LA progress.
