The Lakers’ vibes the last six weeks have been outstanding.
They were 14-2 in March with Luka Doncic looking like peak Luka (maybe even better than peak Luka) and LeBron James finally finding his footing and a role for him to excel alongside Doncic and Austin Reaves.
And then Thursday and the OKC Thunder hit. Literally!
Doncic hurt his hamstring in the middle of the game and the look on his face was gloomy.
Prior to Doncic's injury on Thursday, April 2, the Lakers were 20/1 to win the championship at BetOnline.ag, and 12/1 to win the Western Conference.
Their odds were 55/1 for the title after Doncic’s injury and prior to today's news regarding Reaves' oblique injury, while 28/1 to win the Western Conference.
With both of their leading scorers expected to miss the start of the NBA Playoffs, the Lakers now have 150/1 title odds and 80/1 conference odds.
