In the nation's capital, the Los Angeles Lakers and the Washington Wizards are set to compete on the basketball court. This marks the second half of a back-to-back set for both teams. The Lakers are on the move after playing against the Toronto Raptors the previous night.
On Tuesday, the Lakers delivered an exceptional performance against the Nets, a rare feat on the first night of a back-to-back game. The triumphant match allowed the Lakers to afford LeBron James and Anthony Davis some rest during the fourth quarter.

This turn of events might work in favor of the Lakers. Anticipating the conclusion of the road trip with a game in Washington on Wednesday, head coach Darvin Ham suggested that both James and Davis might be available to play.
"We'll gauge their condition in the morning," Ham mentioned, further adding, "Most likely, they will participate in the game."
Following the game, LeBron also gave an update about his status, albeit without revealing much.
"I'll make a decision based on how I feel tomorrow," LeBron stated. He continued, "As one would expect, I feel like I've just completed a game. We'll assess how I feel tomorrow."
He pointed out that the early rest during the fourth quarter on Tuesday "undoubtedly helps" because "every minute counts." Therefore, the Lakers needed to secure a win as they did on Wednesday.
Having not played in a back-to-back game since late February, LeBron assisted the Lakers in clinching victories against the Clippers and the Wizards.
Fortunately, his efforts in the fourth quarter on Tuesday were not as strenuous as they were against the Clippers, although the upcoming game involves travel.

The Lakers still stand a slim chance of climbing up in the rankings, yet they cannot afford to make mistakes. The severity of LeBron's decision can't be overstated since his presence during the playoffs is crucial.
Each game is of utmost importance, with the Lakers hot on the heels of the Kings and Suns.
Should LeBron and AD join the Wednesday game and the Lakers end their road tour with a 5-1 record, it would tremendously elevate their confidence, momentum, and potential to proceed to the seventh or eighth seed, hence securing another chance at the playoffs.
