Lakers News: Injury Report For Tonight's Battle Of L.A.Lakers-Clippers. Even two short seasons ago, such a matchup would have gotten basketball nerds and even casuals salivating. When the dust ha...
Day'Ron Sharpe - Splits minutes with ClaxtonSharpe posted four points (1-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, two blocks and two steals across 23 minutes during Wednesday's 130-108 loss to New Orleans.
ImpactNicolas Claxton started and played 25 minutes, but Sharpe was, surprisingly, right behind him with 23 minutes. Sharpe was unselected in essentially every fantasy draft, but his rebounding ability nearly ensures he'll have deep-league value if he continues to see 20-plus minutes. Brooklyn is still waiting for some guys to get healthy, like Joe Harris (ankle), Seth Curry (ankle) and T.J. Warren (foot), and Ben Simmons saw just 23 minutes. The rotation is a bit murky. Still, put Sharpe on your watchlist if you're in a 16-teamer.

Jaxson Hayes - Questionable again FridayHayes (elbow) is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus Charlotte.
ImpactHayes missed the team's season opener due to a torn UCL he suffered Oct. 7. He was also listed as questionable Wednesday, so it is still up in the air if he will play Friday. Larry Nance and Naji Marshall played 21 and 14 minutes, respectively, with Hayes missing from the frontcourt rotation Wednesday.

Seth Curry - Remains out FridayCurry (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Raptors, Christian Arnold of the Associated Press reports.
ImpactCurry was unavailable during the preseason following offseason ankle surgery, but he's been participating in practice recently. He'll be sidelined for a second consecutive game to begin the regular season. However, the Nets' backcourt will likely get a boost since Joe Harris (ankle) is considered probable ahead of Friday's game.

Joe Harris - Probable to make season debutHarris (ankle) is listed as probable for Friday's game versus the Raptors, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
ImpactHarris missed Wednesday's season opener and only played in one preseason game due to recovering from ankle surgery he underwent in March. While the sharp-shooter is expected to play Friday, he may have a reduced role for his first game back. Cam Thomas and Patty Mills will likely continue to see solid playing time until Seth Curry (ankle) returns and Harris is back up to full speed.
