Coming out of the All-Star break, the Los Angeles Lakers barely beat a hobbled Los Angeles Clippers squad and then lost back-to-back games to the Boston Celtics and Orlando Magic. They sit in sixth place in the Western Conference with a 34-23 record, and on Thursday, they will visit the Phoenix Suns, who are in seventh place with a 33-26 record.
Backup center Jaxson Hayes had to exit Sunday's game early due to an ankle sprain and missed Tuesday's game as a result. He's listed as probable for Thursday's contest, but key reserve forward Rui Hachimura is questionable due to an illness.
Hachimura had 10 points in 26 minutes on Tuesday. The Lakers will miss his ability to light it up from 3-point range and provide supplemental scoring. On the season, he's averaging 11.7 points on 50.6% overall shooting and 44% from downtown, and he has done well in his new role as a reserve ever since being reassigned to the bench in mid-January.
