Reddish (back) was not on Friday's injury report and will be available for Saturday's game against the Spurs, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Reddish did not play against the Mavericks on Tuesday due to lower back soreness. He appears to be over the issue and should play Saturday, though Thursday's contest against the Hornets was postponed due to ongoing wildfires in the Los Angeles area. The situation could lead to Saturday's game being moved to a later date.

Lakers' Cam Reddish: Questionable for Thursday
Rotowire
Reddish (back) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Hornets, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.
Reddish is at risk of missing his second straight contest Thursday due to lower back soreness. If the veteran forward cannot play through the issue against the Hornets, Max Christie should continue handling significant playing time from Los Angeles' first unit, while Dorian Finney-Smith would likely play a considerable role off the bench.

Lakers' Cam Reddish: Ruled out Tuesday
Rotowire
Reddish (back) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Dallas, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
Reddish will miss his first game since Dec. 1 while he deals with low back soreness that he sustained from a hard fall during Sunday's loss to the Rockets. With the 25-year-old forward sidelined, Dalton Knecht and Dorian Finney-Smith could see a bump in playing time off the bench. Reddish's next chance to play will come Thursday against the Hornets.

Lakers' Cam Reddish: Iffy for Tuesday vs. Dallas
Rotowire
Reddish (back) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Reddish is dealing with low back soreness stemming from a hard fall in the first quarter of Sunday's loss to the Rockets. If the 25-year-old is sidelined Tuesday, Dalton Knecht and Dorian Finney-Smith are candidates for a bump in playing time off the bench.

Lakers' Cam Reddish: Suffers apparent back injury
Rotowire
Reddish didn't return to Sunday's 119-115 loss to the Rockets after suffering an apparent lower back injury in the first quarter, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.
The Lakers never provided an official update on the status of Reddish, who was charged with one foul and recorded no other statistics while playing the final 3:36 of the first quarter before being replaced by Dalton Knecht to begin the second quarter. Reddish previously left a Dec. 28 win over the Kings with back spasms, so he may have suffered an aggravation Sunday. Even if Reddish is cleared to play Tuesday in Dallas, he'll likely hold only a minor role in the Los Angeles rotation.

Lakers' Cam Reddish: Forgettable outing vs. Portland
Rotowire
Reddish closed Thursday's 114-106 victory over Portland with two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 19 minutes.
Reddish is not a player the Lakers depend on offensively, as his impact comes on the defensive end of the floor. However, he's had virtually no impact on either end lately, as he may start losing minutes, especially with Max Christie becoming a force to be reckoned with and the additions of Dorian Finney-Smith and Shake Milton.

Reddish was deemed questionable to return at the start of the second half with back spasms, but he was listed as available shortly thereafter. The veteran will add depth off the bench in the second half, but he isn't expected to affect many fantasy outcomes with his play.

Rotowire

Reddish played 11 minutes off the bench in the first half, but it appears he could be sidelined for the second half due to back spasms.

Lakers' Cam Reddish: Downgraded to questionable Sunday
Rotowire
Reddish has been downgraded to questionable for Sunday's game against Utah due to an illness, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
Reddish was a late addition to the injury report and is in jeopardy of missing his first game since Nov. 16. If the 25-year-old is unable to play, Gabe Vincent and Max Christie are both candidates for an uptick in playing time off the bench behind Dalton Knecht.

Rotowire
Reddish (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against the Spurs, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
Reddish was deemed questionable earlier Wednesday due to left ankle soreness, but he'll end up playing and should see a steady dose of minutes off the bench. He's played at least 20 minutes in four straight games, averaging 4.5 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.5 steals in that span.

Lakers' Cam Reddish: Off injury report for Tuesday
Rotowire
Reddish (leg) is not on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against the Jazz.
Reddish will seemingly return to game action after a one-game absence due to a strained tendon in his lower right leg that he sustained during Friday's win over the Spurs. In November, the 25-year-old has averaged 5.5 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.2 steals across 23.2 minutes per game while shooting 63.2 percent from the field in six outings (four starts).

Lakers' Cam Reddish: Not playing Saturday
Rotowire
Reddish (leg) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Pelicans, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
Reddish strained the tendon in his lower right leg against the Spurs on Friday, and he will sit for the second leg of the Lakers' back-to-back Saturday. That leaves the door open for D'Angelo Russell to return to the starting lineup alongside Austin Reaves and rookie Dalton Knecht.

Lakers' Cam Reddish: Starting Friday
Rotowire
Reddish will get the start in Los Angeles' backcourt in Friday's matchup with the 76ers, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
Reddish will replace D'Angelo Russell in the starting lineup, as head coach JJ Redick is opting to shake things up. Reddish will share the backcourt with Austin Reaves. He has averaged 5.0 points and 4.0 rebounds across 16.3 minutes in three games off the bench this year.

Lakers' Cam Reddish: Provides spark off bench
Rotowire
Reddish accumulated 15 points (5-7 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two steals across 26 minutes during Wednesday's 131-114 loss to the Grizzlies.
With Rui Hachimura (illness) out, Reddish played a season-high 26 minutes against Memphis. Reddish had not scored before Wednesday's contest but led the Lakers' bench in points. However, unless the 25-year-old forward becomes a more consistent part of Los Angeles' rotation, he is unlikely to attract serious fantasy interest.

Lakers' Cam Reddish: Plays 14 minutes
Rotowire
Reddish amassed five rebounds and one steal in 14 minutes during Monday's 115-103 loss to the Pistons.
This was Reddish's second appearance of the season, and while he's yet to put up any points, he did make a strong impact on the game that wasn't reflected in the box score. Even if his role trends up, Reddish is more of a defensive specialist and doesn't have a ton of upside given the Lakers' star-studded roster.
