On Tuesday evening, the Los Angeles Lakers are hosting the Oklahoma City Thunder in California. 

For the game, the two teams have finalized their injury reports and starting lineups.

The Thunder have ruled out Jeremiah Earl-Robinson, Aleksej Pokusevski, Chet Holmgren, Luguentz Dort and Ousmane Dieng.  

Meanwhile, the Lakers will be without Cole Swider and Scotty Pippen Jr.

LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Austin Reaves have all been upgraded to available.

NBA's official injury report 

The starting lineups for both teams have been relayed by Underdog NBA.

Underdog NBA: "Lineup alert: Thunder will start Gilgeous-Alexander, Giddey, Jalen Williams, Kenrich Williams, Jaylin Williams on Tuesday."

Underdog NBA: "Lineup alert: Lakers will start Schroder, Beverley, James, Hachimura, Davis on Tuesday."

Tuesday could end up being one of the most historic nights in NBA history, as James is only 36 points away from passing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar on the all-time scoring list.

The four-time NBA Champion is averaging 30.0 points per contest, so breaking the record is very possible against the Thunder.

The Thunder come into the matchup as the 12th seed in the Western Conference with a 25-28 record in 53 games.

They are 5-5 in their last ten games and 9-17 in the 26 they have played on the road away from Oklahoma.

Meanwhile, the Lakers are a half-game behind the Thunder with a 25-29 record in 54 games.

They are the 13th seed in the west and 5-5 in their last ten games.

In 25 games hosted at home in Los Angeles, the Lakers are a solid 13-12.
