The Lakers could be without four starters for Sunday evening’s game against the Clippers at Crypto.com Arena, with LeBron James and Luka Doncic listed as questionable, Austin Reaves as doubtful and Rui Hachimura ruled out.

Forward Rui Hachimura missed Friday’s game entirely after he was ruled out due to a knee strain he suffered on Thursday against the Timberwolves. Hachimura received an MRI on Friday but there’s no timetable for his return.

Guard Austin Reaves left Friday's game early with calf soreness, and forward Rui Hachimura sat out due to a left knee injury he sustained in Thursday's win over the Minnesota Timberwolves. Hachimura's injury was initially called a knee strain.

The Lakers will be without starters Austin Reaves and Rui Hachimura and reserve guard Jordan Goodwin when they face the Clippers Sunday evening at Crypto.com Arena. Reaves experienced “some tightness” and “some soreness” in his right calf about nine minutes into the first quarter of Friday’s 106-102 victory over the Clippers at Crypto.

LeBron James added 25 points, Austin Reaves scored 23 and Rui Hachimura had 21 when he left holding his left side with 10 minutes remaining — the Lakers didn’t miss him, going on a 12-2 run to stretch their lead to 19.

Rookie Dalton Knecht scored 19 points for the Lakers, who won their sixth straight game despite playing without injured starters Austin Reaves and Rui Hachimura. The Lakers have won 16 of 19 overall.

What is Austin Reaves' status moving forward after he left early during the Lakers' win against the Clippers on Friday?

It hasn't been an easy stretch for rookie Dalton Knecht, who faced an unusual situation in his debut season. The Lakers traded him to the Hornets only to void the deal after Mark Williams failed his physical. Knecht returned to the organization, aware that he had become a tradeable asset after initially looking like a long-term prospect.

LA Lakers forward Rui Hachimura exited abruptly for the second time in three games on Thursday against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
