Ahead of their Monday home matchup against the visiting Washington Wizards, the Lakers have already ruled out Smart from their initial injury report.
The veteran guard will miss his fourth consecutive game for Los Angeles as he continues to deal with a right ankle contusion. Head coach JJ Redick previously told reporters that he is out on a day-to-day basis.
Jake LaRavia, Rui Hachimura, Luke Kennard and Bronny James are poised to gain more minutes upon Smart's extended absence.
The former NBA Defensive Player of the Year is averaging 9.5 points, 2.8 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.4 steals in 60 games throughout his first season as a Laker.
