Rui Hachimura (knee) is expected to be in the lineup for Saturday's Game 1 against the Minnesota Timberwolves, as the team has not listed him on the injury report. Hachimura has spent a large chunk of the campaign on the injury report, but he appears to be fully healthy for the most important part of the season. He has missed three of the last six games, including the regular-season finale last Sunday against the Portland Trail Blazers. Although health issues have significantly disrupted Hachimura's season, he has performed well when in the lineup, averaging 13.1 points and 5.0 rebounds per game in 31.7 minutes.

Rui Hachimura (knee) will not be in action on Tuesday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He is managing a knee issue and will be held out of the first leg of a back-to-back. There is a strong chance Hachimura will rejoin the lineup for Wednesday's matchup against the Dallas Mavericks. Hachimura's absence opens up a starting spot for Tuesday's game, but there are many uncertainties surrounding the Lakers squad, with half of the team listed on the injury report.

Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports that Los Angeles Lakers forward
Rui Hachimura (knee) won't play on Friday versus the New Orleans Pelicans. Hachimura will be out of action with a minor knee injury after finishing with 24 points, six rebounds, and three assists across 34 minutes on Thursday against Golden State. He will likely return on Sunday against Oklahoma City. While Hachimura is on the shelf,
Dorian Finney-Smith and
Dalton Knecht could see a fantasy boost with more minutes and extra scoring opportunities for tonight's matchup.

Los Angeles Lakers forward
Rui Hachimura (knee) isn't listed on the injury report for Saturday's matchup with the Memphis Grizzlies. Hachimura sat out the second leg of the Lakers back-to-back on Thursday against the Bulls, but it appears he will be good to go against the Grizzlies. The 27-year-old averaged 8.0 points and 3.0 rebounds in 23.3 minutes during his last three games. He was out of action for 12 consecutive contests due to a left knee injury and is building up his conditioning for heavier workloads down the stretch.
