The Los Angeles Lakers will look to improve to a 3-1 record in the season as they get set to take on the Portland Trail Blazers for their fourth game on Monday.

The Lakers will take on the Blazers in what will be the second night of a back-to-back after a thrilling 127-120 win over the Sacramento Kings on Sunday. While the Lakers managed to come out on top in that matchup, the win didn’t come without a cost.

Los Angeles will be without not one, not two, not three, but seven players in their contest on Monday.

ESPN's Dave McMenamin shared the news via X.
