The Los Angeles Lakers ended their season far from where they wanted to. Coming into the NBA season, the Lakers were expected to be one of the frontrunners in the race for the NBA championship. But the Lakers never showed any championship pedigree this season, and now, they have been eliminated from contention for the play-in tournament, thus ending their season early.
NBA legend James Worthy spoke about the Los Angeles Lakers getting eliminated from playoff contention last night. Worthy seemed shocked that a Lakers team with the type of talent they have won’t be in the playoffs this year. While he did give them some leeway due to the injuries they accrued during the course of the season, he did note that the Lakers did not perform the way they were expected to (till 1:55).
