The Los Angeles Lakers prepare for their second matchup against the Oklahoma City Thunder within 48 hours, following a decisive 126-99 victory over them. Despite the recent success, the Lakers are cautiously approaching this game, as they have a crucial clash against the Dallas Mavericks looming. This has led to several key players being listed as questionable for Tuesday's game, including LeBron James and Austin Reaves, while Rui Hachimura is confirmed out due to a knee issue.

The Thunder face their own injury concerns with key players like Jaylin Williams being marked questionable. The matchup promises to be an interesting test for both teams as they navigate through player absences and strategize for upcoming games.
