Lakers Injury Report: Cam Reddish Ailment Revealed Ahead Of Phoenix Game.
Ahead of your Los Angeles Lakers’ matchup tonight with their Pacific Division rival Phoenix Suns, Cam Reddish has been deemed questionable with a facial laceration, according to Jovan Buha of The Athletic.
The ailment was incurred late in the team’s 132-131 victory over the Toronto Raptors on Tuesday night.
Reddish being out would be a huge blow for the Lakers, as he’s become their best point-of-attack defender, and playing the Suns, who are expected to have a healthy Bradley Beal, Devin Booker, and Kevin Durant for the first time against the Lakers all season, his absence will be extra noticeable.
In the event that Reddish sits, Darvin Ham’s unpredictability with rotations leaves some uncertainty, but Max Christie, who has played well as of late in increased minutes, may draw the start in the backcourt next to Austin Reaves.
Reddish’s availability will likely be decided close to game time, but luckily, a facial laceration is a short-term injury whichever way you put it, meaning he’ll be back Saturday against the Jazz, at worst.
