It is slowly developing into a sporting crisis:
Without national basketball player Dennis Schröder, champions Los Angeles Lakers have conceded the next defeat in the NBA. (SERVICE: The schedule for the 2020/21 NBA season)
The team around superstar LeBron James had to give the Washington Wizards a surprising 124: 127 defeat after extra time and thus lost the third game in a row.

With the Lakers, who had to do without Schröder, who had fallen ill and Anthony Davis, who was injured on the Achilles tendon, James remained the best thrower with 31 points, but could not prevent the defeat either.
Worrying: The champions didn’t know how to capitalize on a 17-point lead in the third quarter.

For Washington, on the other hand, the German center Moritz Wagner scored six points, one rebound and three assists in 15 minutes of play.
The Wizards, with whom Isaac Bonga did not play, celebrated their fifth win in a row and gained further distance to the bottom of the table in the Eastern Conference. (SERVICE: The tables of the NBA)
Despite the third bankruptcy in a row, Los Angeles still ranks third in the Western Conference. Bradley Beal (33 points) and Russell Westbrook (32) towered over the other side.
