Lakers' Jake LaRavia: Earns starting nod

LaRavia is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Trail Blazers, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.

LaRavia will make his first start of the season -- and first as a Laker -- with Luka Doncic (finger), Gabe Vincent (ankle) and Marcus Smart (quadriceps) all sidelined. Through three games this season, he's averaging 7.3 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 25.7 minutes per contest.
