Los Angeles Lakers point guard D'Angelo Russell has been excused from the team to be with his family in Louisville, and his status for Tuesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans is currently up in the air.
Russell may miss the final two games of the regular season as he responds to the recent passing of his grandmother. Jordan Clarkson figures to be busy Tuesday while Tyler Ennis could return to the first unit versus New Orleans.
Ennis is averaging 12.5 points, 3.5 assists, 1.3 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 2.0 3-pointers in 27.0 minutes per game over his past four contests. His -1.2 nERD is ninth on the Lakers for the season.
