Damian Jones made his debut with the Lakers on Sunday night, but he was forced to exit the game against the Warriors, due to injury.
Jones had eight points (3/3 shooting) and three rebounds in just eight minutes, but left the game with a back injury.
The veteran center was diagnosed with a lower back strain and is considered day-to-day.
Jones has signed a 10-day contract with the Lakers to bolster the frontline.
