Lakers' Jalen Hood-Schifino: Won't play Sunday

Hood-Schifino won't play in Sunday's preseason game against the Bucks, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.

The rookie reportedly banged knees against Golden State, but his absence is simply precautionary. Hood-Schifino is competing for a reserve spot in the Lakers' backcourt, but he may have to spend some time developing in the G League before he's able to carve out a consistent role.
