JaVale McGee Ruled Out For Tuesday’s Game

JaVale McGee is Questionable for Tuesday

Los Angeles Lakers small forward/shooting guard Brandon Ingram (ankle) could join Rajon Rondo (hand) back in the lineup against the Pelicans on Friday, according to coach Luke Walton.

Tyson Chandler Replaces JaVale McGee In Starting Lineup

Los Angeles Lakers center Tyson Chandler replaced JaVale McGee (illness) in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Wizards.

Rajon Rondo Could Return This Week

Los Angeles Lakers point guard Rajon Rondo (hand) may be able to play on Friday against the Pelicans according to coach Luke Walton.

JaVale McGee is Questionable on Saturday

Los Angeles Lakers center JaVale McGee (illness) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Charlotte Hornets.
