Lakers Injury Report: LA All-Stars May Join 4 Other Absent LA Players On Sideline
Four of your Los Angeles Lakers have already been ruled out ahead of tonight’s marquee home matchup against the visiting Milwaukee Bucks.
According to a recent NBA injury report, two-way rookie center Colin Castleton, reserve point guard Gabe Vincent, backup big Christian Wood, and key defense-first forward Jarred Vanderbilt all remain on the shelf for LA. Spencer Dinwiddie has not even come close to replacing what last year’s Vincent vintage would have offered this season, although this year’s edition has played in just five games due to a pesky left knee effusion that eventually required surgery.
LA’s two All-Stars, center Anthony Davis and forward LeBron James, may both miss tonight’s festivities. Davis is considered probable to play through his bilateral Achilles tendinopathy, while James is merely questionable to power through his left ankle peroneal tendinopathy.
