Won't play Tuesday

James is dealing with an illness that will keep him sidelined for Tuesday's game in Oklahoma City. The Lakers could be shorthanded against the Thunder, with more backcourt players potentially ruled out for this game, like Luka Doncic (groin), Austin Reaves (ankle) and Gabe Vincent (knee). Los Angeles will likely have to lean on Jordan Goodwin, Shake Milton and Dalton Knecht to shoulder the load.

Questionable for Tuesday

James missed Friday's win over the Pelicans due to an illness, though he was able to suit up during Sunday's win over the Thunder, recording three points (1-1 FG, 1-1 3Pt) and a rebound across two minutes. The rookie second-round pick's potential absence Tuesday shouldn't cause any waves in the rotation.

Dorian Finney-Smith

Listed as questionable

The veteran forward joins a long list of players on the Lakers' injury report, as Tuesday is the front end of a back-to-back. Depending on who's available, the likes of Jarred Vanderbilt, Jordan Goodwin and Dalton Knecht could all be set to take on an expanded role against Oklahoma City.

Gabe Vincent

Working through knee injury

Vincent dealt with a left knee injury in March, and it appears the issue has flared up and has jeopardized his chances of playing Tuesday. Dalton Knecht and Jordan Goodwin would stand to see an increase in minutes off the bench if Vincent is unable to play. Vincent has averaged 8.8 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.0 assists over his last 10 outings while shooting 40.7 percent from three.

Rui Hachimura

Not playing Tuesday

Hachimura has played in seven of the Lakers' last nine games (including five starts) as he continues to work through a left knee injury, and over that span he has averaged 11.3 points and 3.9 rebounds across 27.9 minutes. He'll be held out of Tuesday's game but could be available for the second leg of the Lakers' back-to-back set Wednesday against the Mavericks. Dorian Finney-Smith (ankle), Dalton Knecht, Gabe Vincent (knee) and Jordan Goodwin are candidates to enter the Lakers' starting five due to Hachimura's absence.
