The veteran Lakers were exhausted by the end of their Game 4 win over Memphis. With one day's rest, they know the Grizzlies will be ready for Game 5.
The Lakers will only go as far as ageless wonder LeBron James takes them. They’ll survive in the playoffs as long as their relentless superstar does.“You just dig deep and understand that you’ll be able to sleep at some point,” James said Monday night. “Just not right now. This is not the time to rest or forget about an assignment. You’ll have more than enough time after the game and the next day to kind of rest and try to decompress as much as possible.
“He’s got it bumped a little bit,” Ham said. “Those things on your hip, whether it’s a hip pointer or it’s some type of bruise, it’s not going to hinder you. It’s not an injury, so to speak. It’s just an area that’s hurt, irritated and he’s all for it. He’s going to push through like he did last night, getting it treated. Got it treated a little bit this morning on the plane. It’s going to continue all the way up to game time. So, I’m not worried about him. He’ll be ready to go.
“It’s been bothering me probably like a week-and-a-half now,” Davis said Monday night. “But there was no way I was coming out. Just tried to give whatever I could to the team. I’ll be fine, though. We do what we’re supposed to Wednesday, then I get a couple of days to let it calm down and get back to normal. But take care of it tonight, tomorrow, and then get ready for Wednesday’s game.”
When the Lakers’ offense faltered late in Game 4 against the Grizzlies on Monday, D’Angelo Russell turned clutch with nine quick points in the victory.
