The smaller cub didn't look to be under-nourished, as his body looked just as healthy and rounded as the other two --- which were twice as big and also looked very healthy --- so it must be the case that he belonged to a younger litter. The little group probably got separated from the mother's other adult companions.
That's one of the great things about lions: even if the mother is dead or separated from a cub, the cub could still survive with other cubs from the pride, as part of the group.
They look so thirsty...where the heck is the water! Thumbs down for being there taking pictures instead of being somewhere working on getting them water!
