Rui Hachimura's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Per Dave McMenamin of ESPN, Los Angeles Lakers forwardRui Hachimura(ankle) will not suit up against the Orlando Magic on Thursday. Hachimura has missed four consecutive contests due to a sprained right ankle. With the 26-year-old out, Dalton Knecht will remain a strong fantasy option as he posted 37 points, five rebounds and one steal in 38 minutes during Tuesday's 124-118 win over the Jazz.

Los Angeles Lakers forward Rui Hachimura (ankle) has been listed as questionable for Tuesday's meeting with Utah. He didn't practice on Monday, meaning it's unlikely Hachimura will be able to play, but Lakers head coach JJ Redick hasn't fully ruled him out just yet. Hachimura has been sidelined for two games already, giving Dalton Knecht and Max Christie larger roles. The two have looked good at times, but their inexperience at this level makes them fairly inconsistent performers.

Los Angeles Lakers forward Rui Hachimura (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's contest against the New Orleans Pelicans. Hachimura will miss his third consecutive game due to a sprained right ankle. His next opportunity to play will come on Tuesday against the Utah Jazz. In Hachimura's absence, rookie Dalton Knecht is expected to start for the second straight game. Knecht has been productive in recent outings, scoring 14 and 19 points in the last two contests, while playing over 25 minutes in each. Fantasy managers may want to consider adding Knecht as a streaming option.
