Lakers Coach Frank Vogel Gives Latest Update on LeBron James’ Availability for Bucks Game

As of now, fans have lost most of the hopes they had from the super team that the Los Angeles Lakers built in the offseason. Injury woes just keep lurking behind the players with LeBron James still sitting out for seven games now. With their tedious road trip to the East coast about to begin, they will need their superstar the most. And it seems like he might be playing against the Milwaukee Bucks.

LeBron James could be present for the next matchup

The Los Angeles Lakers just lost to the Chicago Bulls by a 121-103 score. However, this hardly came as a surprise because the Bulls have completely wreaked havoc in the East. After adding some good talent in the offseason, fans were hoping that they would at least make it to the playoff berth but they have been able to achieve so much more.

With this victory against the purple and gold, the Bulls are standing second in the East with a 10-4 record. On the other hand, the team that was deemed a title contender even before the regular season began, is hardly keeping it together. The purple and gold have an 8-7 record and are standing seventh in the West.

A lot of it had to do with Russell Westbrook taking his own sweet time to adjust, paired with injury troubles. But now that the Lakers are slowly coming to full strength, everyone was hoping they will step up to their expectations. And this won’t happen until LeBron James doesn’t come back. So, Frank Vogel recently revealed that Bron is listed as “Day-to-day” against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Will the Milwaukee Bucks also triumph over them?

The Milwaukee Bucks haven’t had the greatest start to the season as well. The reigning champions are in an even worse condition than the Lakers, with a 6-8 record and a two-game losing streak.

If they couldn’t defeat the elite Bulls, the Bucks are their perfect shot at gaining some momentum and getting an easy victory. But for a team that had to jump hoops to even defeat the San Antonio Spurs, nothing can be ruled out.

And if LeBron James ends up sitting this one out as well, the chances are 50-50. Who do you think will end up defeating the other?
