Facing the Dallas Mavericks, Luka Doncic has been marked unavailable. He will miss his fourth consecutive game due to his ongoing left hamstring strain recovery.
Per ESPN's Dave McMenamin, the Slovenian superstar is continuing his rehab and hopes to participate in Sunday’s All-Star game for the World Team.
Meanwhile, LeBron James is not on the inactive list. It appears he is good to go after missing the Lakers' 136-108 Tuesday loss against the San Antonio Spurs.
Meanwhile, Deandre Ayton is questionable as he continues dealing with right knee soreness.
Following the brutal loss against the Spurs, the Lakers will seek to bounce back and erase their two-game losing skid heading to the lengthy break.
