The Lakers got back D’Angelo Russell to the lineup after a two-week absence just in time as the lakers played host to the Toronto Raptors. The return was just what the doctor ordered as D’Lo provided a boost to the team with 28 points and 9 assists as the Lakers came back from a third-quarter deficit to pull away with a 122-112 win to go to 33-34 and alone in 9th place in the Western Conference. Tune in as Stone Hansen from The Upside Swings NBA Draft Podcast, Joe Soro from SynBlades.com/lakersball.com, LakerTom from lakerholics.com, “MagicMan In The Morning” Host Sean Grice, and Gerald Glassford from the Lakers Fast Break share thoughts on the game, where the Lakers are at in the Western Conference, and what the matchup with the Knicks might look like on Sunday. We welcome back D’Angelo with open arms on the Lakers Fast Break podcast!

Always a fun podcast after a big win. I’ve said all week that this Friday/Sunday double header will be as big as the March 2020 weekend trouncing of the Bucks and Clippers. Raptor and Knicks were hottest two teams in the East. Welcome to the West.
By Sunday, we should see a four-way tie for 6th place in the West with the Lakers (who will beat the Knicks tomorrow), Mavs (who will lose to the Grizzlies today), Warriors (who will lose to the Bucks today), and Wolves all at 34-34.
