Top Rui Hachimura News

  • Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Could return Monday

    Head coach JJ Redick said Friday that he has "a lot of optimism" that Hachimura (calf) will be cleared to play Monday against the Kings, Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.coml reports.

    Hachimura appears to be in the final stages of his recovery from a right calf strain, which has prevented him from playing since Dec. 28 and will keep him out of a sixth consecutive game Friday versus the Bucks. He could operate under a minutes restriction upon his return, but his availability in any capacity would leave less playing time available for the likes of Jake LaRavia and Jarred Vanderbilt and could result in Dalton Knecht moving out of the rotation.

  • Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Out again Friday

    Hachimura (calf) will not play Friday against the Bucks.

    Hachimura was able to get some practice reps in the G League on Wednesday, but he was unable to shake his questionable tag for this one. This will be his sixth straight game on the shelf, but it sounds like he'll have a good chance of returning Monday against the Kings.

  • Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Questionable for Friday

    Hachimura (calf) is questionable for Friday's game versus the Bucks.

    Hachimura was a partial participant in Wednesday's practice with the Lakers' G League affiliate in South Bay, so he's moving in the right direction. We'll have a better idea on Hachimura's status based on his activity level at Friday's shootaround, but if he is able to get back out there, Dalton Knecht and Jake LaRavia's minutes would take a hit.

  • Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Practices in G League on Wednesday

    Hachimura (calf) practiced with the South Bay Lakers of the G League on Wednesday.

    Hachimura is still recovering from a right calf strain that has held him out for the last five games, but his return to basketball activities is encouraging, and he may take the court soon. He can be considered questionable to suit up Friday against Milwaukee.

  • Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Out at least two more games

    Hachimura (calf) has been ruled out for the Lakers' upcoming two-game road trip, which begins Tuesday at New Orleans, Thuc Nhi Nguyen of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Hachimura has already missed three games due to a right calf injury, and he's guaranteed to miss at least two more games. If he's ready to return when the Lakers return from the road trip, he could play Friday against Milwaukee. Hachimura's absence has opened up more opportunities for Jake LaRavia and Dalton Knecht.

  • Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Missing two-game set vs. Memphis

    Hachimura (calf) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Pistons and will also miss the Lakers' two-game set against the Grizzlies on Friday and Sunday, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.

    Head coach JJ Redick relayed to reporters Tuesday that the Lakers are aiming to have Hachimura available early next week, which would put him on track to return against the Pelicans on Tuesday, Jan. 6. The Lakers will likely turn to Dalton Knecht, Jake LaRavia, Nick Smith and Jarred Vanderbilt to help fill the void left by Hachimura and Austin Reaves (calf).

  • Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Won't play vs. Detroit

    Hachimura has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Pistons due to right calf soreness.

    Hachimura had just returned from a groin injury, so it's unclear as to when the calf injury popped up. Look for Jake LaRavia and Dalton Knecht to be much more involved Tuesday in Hachimura's absence.

  • Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Cleared to play Thursday

    Hachimura (groin) is available for Thursday's game against the Rockets, NBA reporter Marc Stein reports.

    As expected, the forward will be good to go for Christmas Day. This month, Hachimura is averaging 9.4 points and 4.0 rebounds in 31.1 minutes.

  • Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Likely to play Christmas Day

    Hachimura (groin) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Rockets, Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.com reports.

    Hachimura has missed the Lakers' last two games due to a groin injury. He's progressing toward returning Christmas Day, and if he's given the green light to play, Jake LaRavia and Nick Smith would be the top candidates to exit the Lakers' starting lineup. Hachimura is averaging 13.3 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.9 threes over 32.9 minutes per game this season.

  • Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Out again Tuesday

    Hachimura (groin) will remain on the inactive list for Tuesday's game in Phoenix, Dan Woike of The Athletic reports.

    Per Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com, head coach JJ Redick said Saturday that he was hopeful Hachimura would be able to make it back to the court in 3-5 days, so while Hachimura will miss his second straight game Tuesday, it sounds like there's a chance he could get back out there for Thursday's game against the Rockets. Jake LaRavia, Jarred Vanderbilt and Dalton Knecht are candidates to pick up the slack while Hachimura is out.

  • Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Downgraded to out

    Hachimura (groin) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Clippers, Dan Woike of The Athletic reports.

    Hachimura was initially listed as questionable due to right groin soreness, but he'll wind up missing the contest. As a result, Jake LaRavia, Jarred Vanderbilt and Dalton Knecht could see an uptick in playing time. Hachimura's next chance to play will come Tuesday at Phoenix.

  • Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Nursing groin injury

    Hachimura is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Clippers due to right groin soreness, Dan Woike of The Athletic reports.

    Hachimura may have picked up the injury during the Lakers' win over the Jazz on Thursday, when he logged 13 points (6-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one block over 33 minutes. If Hachimura is unable to play, then the Lakers could turn to Jake LaRavia or Jarred Vanderbilt to start in Saturday's duel.

  • Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Drops dud offensively

    Hachimura ended Sunday's 116-114 victory over Phoenix with three points (1-5 FG, 1-4 3Pt), seven rebounds, one assist and two steals over 31 minutes.

    Outside of a scoreless outing against the Suns on Dec. 1, this was Hachimura's worst offensive showing of the season. He somewhat salvaged his production by tying his season highs in rebounds and steals. However, with Austin Reaves (calf) sidelined for at least a week, Hachimura will need to bounce back offensively.

  • Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Remains locked in from deep

    Hachimura notched 17 points (7-12 FG, 3-7 3Pt), six rebounds and one assist across 36 minutes during Sunday's 112-108 victory over the 76ers.

    Hachimura wasn't overly impressive in the scoring column Sunday, but he drilled three triples for a second straight matchup and is now 8-for-17 from downtown over his last three appearances. The Gonzaga product has been decent for the Lakers of late outside of a zero-point showing Dec. 1 against Phoenix, averaging 11.7 points and 3.8 rebounds in his last six games.

  • Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Nails game-winning shot

    Hachimura racked up 12 points (4-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and one steal across 35 minutes during Thursday's 123-120 win over the Raptors.

    Hachimura drilled a corner three off a pass from LeBron James to win the game at the buzzer. The former Washington Wizard has started all but one game this season for the Lakers, averaging a career high 13.9 points, 3.6 rebounds, 0.9 assists, and 1.9 three-pointers in 33.2 minutes.

  • Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Posts 14 points in victory

    Hachimura notched 14 points (6-14 FG, 2-8 3Pt) and two rebounds across 34 minutes during Sunday's 133-121 victory over the Pelicans.

    Gabe Vincent slipped into the lineup but was ineffective as LeBron James' (foot) replacement. Hachimura's production has been helpful during James' absences, and although he's averaging an eight-point drop in production over last season, Hachimura's rebounding average (8.3 per game) is at a five-year high. His acumen off the glass is a great aid for those needing rebounds in category leagues.

  • Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Puts up 13 in win

    Hachimura ended Tuesday's 135-118 win over the Clippers with 13 points (6-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt) and three rebounds over 31 minutes.

    Hachimura has cooled off offensively as of late, failing to eclipse the 15-point mark since Nov. 10, but he has shot the ball well all season, averaging 14.9 points and 1.8 threes on a blistering 56.8 percent from the field and 48.3 percent from three. The Lakers have shown they will call on him to produce when their top offensive playmakers are unavailable. However, even with everyone healthy, Hachimura still has standalone fantasy value and should be rostered in most formats.
