Rui Hachimura DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Los Angeles Lakers forward Rui Hachimura(knee) isn't listed on the injury report for Saturday's matchup with the Memphis Grizzlies. Hachimura sat out the second leg of the Lakers back-to-back on Thursday against the Bulls, but it appears he will be good to go against the Grizzlies. The 27-year-old averaged 8.0 points and 3.0 rebounds in 23.3 minutes during his last three games. He was out of action for 12 consecutive contests due to a left knee injury and is building up his conditioning for heavier workloads down the stretch.

Los Angeles Lakers forward Rui Hachimura (knee) will exit the lineup for Thursday's clash against the Chicago Bulls. He only recently returned to action after missing time with a knee injury, and the team will keep Hachimura sidelined for this matchup after he played 28 minutes as a starter in Wednesday's win over the Indiana Pacers. Dorian Finney-Smith may land back in the starting unit on Thursday, with Jarred Vanderbilt and Jordan Goodwin also potentially getting extra work.

Los Angeles Lakers forward Rui Hachimura (knee) will play and start on Wednesday against Indiana. The veteran was on the shelf for an extended period because of a knee injury. Fortunately, he's been available for Los Angeles' previous two contests. However, Hachimura has struggled since returning, combing for just 10 points during that span. He's also been limited to fewer than 24 minutes. While a crack at the starting lineup should increase Hachimura's chances of added production, the minutes cap still makes him a risky fantasy option on Wednesday night.
