LeBron James is set to return soon, possibly as soon as Tuesday, according to the latest reports. When framed in conjunction with the Lakers destroying the Phoenix Suns — their potential first-round playoff opponent — without him on Sunday, things appear to be looking up for the purple and gold, even if it looks increasingly likely that they’re headed for the play-in tournament. The team itself has continuously maintained that they don’t want to end up in the potential double-elimination scenari...

Andre Drummond has played 10 games so far with the Los Angeles Lakers since joining them as a midseason buyout free agent. And with just 11 games to go in the regular season, the team has now seen just about half of the sample size they’re going to get on “The Big Penguin” before the playoffs begin, so it’s probably about time for us to discuss what we’ve seen so far, and what we feel like we (and the Lakers) can expect from Drummond in the postseason at this point. To do that, I could think of ...
