3 years agoLos Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (knee) and center Anthony Davis (wrist) have been ruled out for Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. James sat out last game due to this knee issue and he'll miss at least one more game. Davis suffered a wrist injury last game, but managed to play through the issue. However, he'll sit this one out, but hopefully won't miss more than just one game. In the meantime, Russell Westbrook (knee) has been cleared to play and will see his usage skyrocket. Dwight Howard should start at center, but will only have low-end streaming appeal. Talen Horton-Tucker and Carmelo Anthony should have increased usage and minutes here. Both could be possible streaming options with the Lakers limited here.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller
