Dennis Schröder News, Rumors, Updates - Brooklyn Nets

Starting Friday Schroder will enter the starting five Friday against the Spurs, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.

Impact Schroder is the starting point guard for the Lakers' Friday meeting with San Antonio, replacing Patrick Beverley, who is serving the first of a three-game suspension. Schroder can be considered a streaming option for as long as he remains in the starting lineup.

Held scoreless across 20 minutes Schroder closed with zero points (0-6 FG, 0-3 3Pt), one assist and one steal across 20 minutes during Tuesday's 115-105 loss to Phoenix.

Impact Schroder made his season debut last Friday and struggled across 16 minutes of action, but he bounced back Sunday with a quality 13-point performance. However, the backup point guard couldn't maintain his momentum and fell flat against the Suns. Schroder has plenty of competition for playing time, so his early struggles could be detrimental to his chances of carving out a role in the Lakers' rotation.

Plays 15 minutes in debut Schroder (thumb) recorded two points (1-5 FG, 0-1 3PT) and two assists across 15 minutes in Friday's 128-121 win over the Pistons.

Impact Schroder made his season debut Friday after he had been sidelined for the first month of the season while recovering from thumb surgery. Though he didn't enter the contest with any reported minute restriction, Schroder came off the bench and struggled to make an impact during his limited time on the court. Schroder's role could grow as he gets back into the swing of things, but it's unclear if head coach Darvin Ham has any visions of the veteran point guard replacing the struggling Patrick Beverley in the starting five.

Not on injury report Schroder (thumb) will be available for Friday's game against the Pistons, NBA writer Marc Stein reports.

Impact Schroder's debut comes at a good time for the Lakers, with Max Christie (COVID-19 protocols) out and both LeBron James (groin) and Juan Toscano-Anderson (back) questionable Friday. Although Schroder's exact role in the backcourt remains to be seen, he isn't expected to be under many restrictions due to the nature of his injury. His return will likely cut into the workload of Russell Westbrook and Kendrick Nunn.

Full participant in practice Schroder (thumb) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice session, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Schroder is expected to make his season debut Friday against the Pistons, and he seems to be trending toward making that a reality by fully participating in practice Wednesday. The 29-year-old will presumably be monitored in the coming days to see how his surgically repaired thumb responds to his increased work, but it seems likely that he'll be active against Detroit on Friday.

Impact Both Schroder and big man Thomas Bryant have missed the Lakers' first 13 games of the season while recovering from their respective thumb surgeries, but if Walker's comments are accurate, Los Angeles could be back at full strength for the first time all season later this week. When Schroder re-signed with the Lakers on a minimum deal in mid-September, his role heading into the 2022-23 season wasn't immediately clear. However, with Russell Westbrook having since moved into the sixth-man role and with Patrick Beverley offering little on the offensive end upon shifting from an off-ball role to point guard, the Lakers could be inclined to give Schroder a look with the first unit. Before the Lakers decide on whether Schroder will be able to make his season debut Friday, the team will likely re-evaluate him during practices over the next few days to ensure that his surgically repaired right thumb has fully healed.

Out 3-to-4 weeks with thumb injury Schroder (thumb) will be sidelined for three-to-four weeks after undergoing surgery Monday to address a ligament injury in his thumb, Dave McMenamin of ESPN reports.

Impact The hits are already starting to come for a Lakers team that's extremely thin on reliable depth behind LeBron James and Anthony Davis. With Schroder sidelined for the first few weeks of the regular season, Los Angeles will lean heavily on Patrick Beverley and Kendrick Nunn in the backcourt alongside Russell Westbrook, whose ultimate role is yet to be determined. Schroder signed with the Lakers in September after splitting last season between Boston and Houston. Across 64 total appearances, Schroder averaged 13.5 points, 4.6 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 0.8 steals while shooting 34.4 percent from deep.

Considered day-to-day Lakers head coach Devin Ham said Schroder is considered day-to-day with a thumb injury, Broderick Turner of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Schroder missed the Lakers' preseason finale due to a thumb issue, leaving his status for Tuesday's regular-season contest in question. Fellow point guard Russell Westbrook (hamstring) is also questionable, so Patrick Beverley and Kendrick Nunn could operate as Los Angeles' top guards to start the campaign.

Russell Westbrook to command second unit in Lakers' final preseason game

Status to begin season in question Schroder is dealing with a finger injury, and his status for Tuesday's regular-season opener is in question, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Impact Schroder missed the start of the preseason due to visa issues but played Wednesday against Minnesota and recorded zero points (0-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and a rebound in nine minutes. He'll be unavailable for Friday's preseason finale against the Kings and is undergoing further testing to determine the severity of his injury and a potential return timetable.

Impact Schroder was late to join the team following his play for Germany in EuroBasket 2022 due to visa issues, but as expected, he returned to the team Monday and is in line to play Wednesday against Golden State.

A tough mental shift: EuroBasket star one week, NBA supporting role the next

Expects to join team soon Schroder (not injury related) is expected to join the team early this week, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Schroder has been in Germany while working through visa issues. His return sounds imminent, so he should have plenty of time to work with the team in camp and carve out a role for himself. He's one of multiple backcourt options the Lakers figure to toy with in preseason in an attempt to figure out the best lineup combinations.

OCTOBER 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Working through visa issues Schroder remains in Germany while working on a visa issue, but the Lakers hope to have him in the fold within the next week, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.

Impact Schroder's availability for the preseason opener against the Kings next Monday could be questioned. However, the issue doesn't appear to be a factor in his availability to begin the 2022-23 regular season. At this point, though, Schroder is missing some valuable reps in training camp.
