Lakers depth chart
The Los Angeles Lakers' published depth chart at all five spots, the injury report, who played how many minutes last game, and our projected rotation for the next one.
The Los Angeles Lakers list 20 players across the five spots on the league's own depth chart, last changed Sep 30. First choice at each: Luka Doncic at point guard, Austin Reaves at shooting guard, Quentin Grimes at small forward, Jake LaRavia at power forward and Walker Kessler at center. It is an ordering, not a minutes projection — a club can list five point guards and play two.
3 on the injury report. Out: Cameron Carr and Adou Thiero. Day-to-day: Collin Sexton.
Last game, vs the Nuggets on Fri, Oct 16 (L 106-121), a preseason game: 14 players got on the floor. Walker Kessler 31, Austin Reaves 31 and Quentin Grimes 28 led the minutes. 9 dressed or listed and did not play.
Next up: vs the Hornets, Thu, Jan 9 at 10:30 PM ET. The projected rotation lands here once the model has priced the game, usually the morning of.
