Lakers News: Pau Gasol Suffers Right Foot Injury In Win Vs. Nets

The Los Angeles Lakers were able to extend their winning streak to a three games after taking down the Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday night at the Barclays Center without an injured Dwight Howard and a suspended Metta World Peace.

Gasol’s status is uncertain moving forward. The team will await the results of the MRI.
