The Lakers can’t seem to catch a break. After losing Pau Gasol for the majority of the season, the team is now facing the prospect of losing one of their best energy guys. It was announced today that Earl Clark has been suffering from a sore right foot, and is receiving an MRI on Tuesday to determine his availability for tonight’s game against the Phoenix Suns.
