Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Starting sans James
Hachimura will start against the Pacers on Friday, Trevor Lane of LakersNation.com reports.
With LeBron James (elbow/foot) unavailable for the second leg of this back-to-back set, Hachimura will return to the first unit. As a starter this season (31 games), the 28-year-old forward has averaged 12.9 points and 3.7 rebounds in 32.3 minutes per contest.

Hachimura (illness) is available to play Sunday against the Kings.
Hachimura is officially off the injury report and will return to action after a two-game absence due to an illness. He has been a consistent presence in the Lakers rotation this season, averaging 11.7 points and 3.4 rebounds in 29.5 minutes per game. The 28-year-old forward could see increased playing time Sunday if LeBron James (foot) is downgraded from questionable to out.

Hachimura (illness) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Warriors.

Hachimura (illness) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Warriors, Dan Woike of The Athletic reports.

Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Ruled out with illness
Hachimura won't play in Thursday's game against the Suns due to an illness, per Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com.
Hachimura can be tentatively labeled as questionable for Saturday's clash with the Warriors. With the 28-year-old forward sidelined, the door is open for each of Jake LaRavia, Luke Kennard and Marcus Smart to seize a more sizable role Thursday.

Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Questionable for Thursday

Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Coming off bench Friday
Hachimura is not in the Lakers' starting lineup against the Clippers on Friday, Dan Woike of The Athletic reports.
Hachimura will slide to the bench for Friday's LA clash after Luka Doncic (hamstring) was cleared to return to action. Hachimura has started in each of the Lakers' last four games, with his last outing taking place Feb. 12 against the Mavericks, when he registered 21 points, three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 35 minutes.

Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Strikes for 21 in Thursday's win
Hachimura notched 21 points (9-13 FG, 3-4 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal across 35 minutes during Thursday's 124-104 win over Dallas.
Making his fourth straight start, Hachimura produced his best scoring effort since Jan. 26, when he dropped 23 points in Chicago. The 28-year-old forward heads into the All-Star break averaging 14.3 points, 3.3 boards, 2.3 threes, 1.3 assists and 0.8 steals during his starting stint, but he'll likely return to the bench when starters Deandre Ayton (knee) and Luka Doncic are cleared to get back on the court.

Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Gets hot from downtown
Hachimura totaled 18 points (7-10 FG, 4-5 3Pt), one rebound and one block across 28 minutes during Saturday's 105-99 victory over Golden State.
Hachimura was a big part of the Lakers offense in a win over Golden State. Four made threes ties a season high for Hachimura, who got the starting nod in the absence of Luka Doncic, who's nursing a hamstring injury. Los Angeles has three more games before the All-Star break.

Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Starting Saturday
Hachimura is part of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Warriors, Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.com reports.
Hachimura will step into the first unit for the first time in 13 appearances, filling in for the injured Luka Doncic (hamstring). In his last 10 games, Hachimura is averaging 11.2 points and 3.6 rebounds across 25.9 minutes. Marcus Smart, LeBron James, Jake LaRavia and Jaxson Hayes make up the rest of the starting lineup Saturday.

Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Chips in 11 points off bench
Hachimura amassed 11 points (5-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist over 29 minutes during Sunday's 112-100 loss to the Knicks.
After beginning the season as a full-time starter, Hachimura is falling into a consistent reserve role. The veteran forward's playing time could take another hit once Austin Reaves (calf) rejoins the lineup as well. Over his last seven contests (no starts), Hachimura has averaged 11.9 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 25.3 minutes per game.

Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Paces bench in victory
Hachimura totaled 23 points (9-11 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 29 minutes during Monday's 129-118 victory over the Bulls.
Hachimura caught fire in this one and led the second unit in scoring, reaching the 20-point mark for the fourth time through 35 regular-season games. He also tied his season-high mark in triples and has knocked down multiple three-pointers in three straight games. Additionally, the 27-year-old forward chipped in at least one steal and one block for the second time in his last six appearances.

Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Contributes 10 points from bench
Hachimura ended Sunday's 110-93 victory over Toronto with 10 points (4-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt) in 21 minutes.
Hachimura's fantasy value has taken a hit following his seven-game injury absence, as he's been unable to reclaim his spot in the starting lineup after being a fixture with the first unit for the majority of the season. Although his 21 minutes marked his highest minute total since his return, it appears that coach JJ Redick is opting for Jake LaRavia over Hachimura right now. LaRavia's recent totals have been uninspiring, so Hachimura's progress will be worth monitoring over the next couple of weeks.

Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Capped at 18 minutes in return
Hachimura (calf) recorded seven points (3-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and two rebounds in 18 minutes Tuesday in the Lakers' 141-116 win over the Hawks.
After recovering from a right calf strain, Hachimura took the floor for the first time since Dec. 28, but he operated with a significant minutes restriction and was deployed as a bench player for the first time all season. Jake LaRavia is likely to eventually move back to the second unit to clear a spot in the starting five for Hachimura, but the 27-year-old could need multiple games to get fully reconditioned before the Lakers opt to shake up the lineup.

Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Will be under restriction Tuesday
Lakers head coach JJ Redick said that Hachimura (calf) will play Tuesday against the Hawks but will have a "severe minutes restriction," Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
After missing six straight games due to a right calf strain, Hachimura was cleared to play Monday against the Kings, but the Lakers ultimately decided to stay away from the veteran forward in the 124-112 loss so that he could be fresher for the second leg of the back-to-back set. Hachimura still won't be asked to reclaim his normal role coming off the injury, as the Lakers plan to use him off the bench and monitor his minutes Tuesday. Once he gets fully ramped up over the course of a few games, Hachimura is likely to eventually unseat Jake LaRavia on the top unit.

Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Not starting in return
Hachimura will be deployed off the bench Monday against the Kings, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
Hachimura will suit up for the first time since Dec. 28 after putting a calf injury behind him, and the Lakers will elect to bring him off the bench Monday in an effort to ease him back into action. Coach JJ Redick noted that Hachimura will be on a minutes restriction but failed to provide a range of playing time. Jake LaRavia will remain in the starting five while Hachimura gets back up to speed.

Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Off injury report for Monday
Hachimura (calf) isn't listed on the injury report for Monday's game against the Kings, Dan Woike of The Athletic reports.
Hachimura is set to return from a six-game absence due to a right calf strain. However, head coach JJ Redick said Saturday that the 27-year-old forward will be on a minutes restriction and may come off the bench Monday, according to Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.com. With Hachimura back in the lineup, fewer minutes will be available for the likes of Dalton Knecht, Jake LaRavia and Jarred Vanderbilt.
