This is quite a blow for L.A., as the team is already missing several players due to being in the protocols.
The Lakers will also be without Anthony Davis for at least four weeks because of a sprained MCL. LeBron James is listed as probable for Sunday’s game.
The team will have to make do with a depleted roster as it looks to get back on the winning track after a stinging loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves.
L.A. currently stands at 16-14 and is the No. 6 seed in the Western Conference.
