D'Angelo Russell (illness) will not play on Tuesday for Lakers
Los Angeles Lakers point guard D'Angelo Russell (illness) will not play on Tuesday versus the Golden State Warriors.
With Russell out of commission, we can expect Jordan Clarkson and Lou Williams to log heavy minutes. Marcelo Huertas could also see some minutes as the backup point guard. Russell is dealing with a sore throat, so we will list him as day-to-day.
Russell's -11.3 nERD is the third worst in the NBA. He's averaging 11.6 points, 4.1 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game while posting a 47.4 True Shooting Percentage. We project him to average 13.1 points, 4.0 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game while shooting 41.0 percent from the field over the remaining course of the season.
