The Los Angeles Lakers will visit the Atlanta Hawks tonight at State Farm Arena, but they’re doing so with a long injury report. Eight players, including Anthony Davis and LeBron James, are listed ahead of the game, potentially complicating their bid to end a two-game losing streak.
Davis is listed as probable with left plantar fasciitis, while James is questionable due to left foot soreness. Rookie Bronny James is also questionable with a left heel contusion.
Key rotational players Jaxson Hayes (ankle sprain/contusion), Austin Reaves (pelvic contusion), and Jarred Vanderbilt (foot surgery recovery) are all sidelined. Christian Wood remains out as he recovers from knee surgery.
The Lakers currently sit ninth in the Western Conference with a 12-10 record, seeking to regain momentum. Meanwhile, the Hawks are on a five-game winning streak, boasting a 12-11 record that places them sixth in the East.
Atlanta’s injury report is significantly lighter but includes key names. Trae Young is listed as probable with right Achilles tendinitis, while Cody Zeller will miss the game for personal reasons.
A handful of players, including Dominick Barlow, Seth Lundy, and Mouhamed Gueye, are listed as questionable due to G League assignments.
