Question Loose rear drvers side wheel

When changing my brakes last week i noticed when i tightened the lugs all the way and jscked the car back up i noticed about 1maybe 2mm of play when i shook the wheel to make sure it was tight. I checked the passenger side for play but there was none. I looked with a friend to see if i could see where the play was coming from but everything looked tight even while he shook the wheel. What could be causing this? and where should i try lookin next?
