Lakers rule out Timofey Mozgov (eye) for Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers center Timofey Mozgov (eye) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks.

What It Means:

Mozgov suffered what looked to be a pretty serious facial injury against the Pacers on Monday. Look for Tarik Black to get the start in Mozgov's place, though Julius Randle and Larry Nance Jr. both stand to see a bump in minutes.

Our models had projected Mozgov for 20.58 minutes against the Hawks tonight, so his absence will have a significant impact on the fantasy values of other Lakers' big men.
