Impact Finney-Smith will be returning from a two-game absence and is no longer on the injury report. Anthony Davis (calf) is questionable, meaning Finney-Smith could potentially see increased run Sunday.

Doubtful for Wednesday Finney-Smith (personal) has been listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Heat, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Impact Finney-Smith has only played in six games for the Lakers since being traded to Los Angeles by the Nets. The defensive-minded forward appears to be on track to miss Wednesday's game against Miami after playing only 20 minutes off the bench in Monday's blowout loss to the San Antonio Spurs, finishing with four points, three rebounds and two steals.

Another tough outing post-trade Finney-Smith provided three points (1-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 24 minutes during Thursday's 114-106 win over the Trail Blazers.
Impact Finney-Smith has yet to make an impact since being traded to the Lakers. The defensive-minded forward has only hit two shots with Los Angeles, going 2-for-10 from the field in the two games he's played for his new squad. It's not uncommon for a player to struggle after being traded, but he'll have to turn it around quickly if JJ Redick is going to depend on him for a boost off the bench on both ends of the floor.
