The Los Angeles Lakers are currently on a three-game winning streak after Tuesday's win over the Brooklyn Nets, but even with their recent luck, the team still can't seem to shake the injury bug this season.

Prior to Tuesday's 92-83 win over the Nets, the Lakers were without Jordan Hill and Dwight Howard, leaving the front court extremely depleted. To make matters worse, the Lakers lost Pau Gasol in their game against the Nets and the injury seemed very serious. Gasol's right foot is the area of concern, and the seven-foot forward will have an MRI on Wednesday.

After the game, Kobe Bryant spoke with the media and voiced his concerns about Gasol's injury and Dave McMenamin tweeted Bryant's reactions.

The Lakers will likely be without Gasol for at least a few games, a severe blow to an already banged up team. Gasol has played well in the past couple of matches and the Lakers will surely miss his presence if he ends up being sidelined.

Without Gasol in the lineup, the pressure will be on Bryant and veteran point guard Steve Nash to carry the load and lead their team as they have a tuff upcoming schedule in the next recent weeks.

Los Angeles will be back in action on Thursday against the Boston Celtics.
