Lakers down to just five players, Sacre in the game despite being fouled out

by Blake Murphy

This is getting beyond weird.

Okay, so quick recap: The Lakers entered tonight's game with eight players. Then Nick Young got hurt. Then Chris Kaman fouled out. Then Jordan Farmar got hurt.

That makes five.

Now, Robert Sacre has fouled out, but is allowed to remain in the game. From his sixth foul onward, he'll be assessed a technical foul as well but won't be ejected from the game. 

Kendall Marshall, Wesley Johnson, Ryan Kelly, Steve Blake and a fouled-out Robert Sacre.

And now Steve Nash has put on a uniform, despite being out for the night. It's doubtful the team uses him, but he's back on the bench.

And they're STILL beating the Cavaliers, 111-103 with 3:32 to play.
