For another game, the Lakers will miss several key players, as they travel to Houston to face the Rockets on Tuesday.

A total of six players will be unavailable for the 17-time NBA champions. Four of them are in the Covid-19 protocols and two are dealing with injuries.

Kent Bazemore, Austin Reaves, Rajon Rondo and Trevor Ariza are still in the protocols, along with head coach Frank Vogel. However, they can clear quarantine sooner, based on the new agreement between the NBA and NBPA.

In addition, Anthony Davis and Kendrick Nunn remain out, as they have not yet recovered from their injuries. The Lakers have dropped to 16-18 and will seek to snap a five-game losing streak.
