The Los Angeles Lakers struggled on their recent four-game road trip as they found themselves slammed with one injury after another, ultimately causing them to pick up just one win. They return home to STAPLES Center hoping to finally get things going against the Utah Jazz, but it would not be an easy challenge.

With D’Angelo Russell, Larry Nance Jr., Nick Young, and Jose Calderon all unavailable due to injury, Los Angeles would need to find a way to rally together and get a much-needed win. Check out the highlights below, courtesy of the Lakers official Twitter account:
