INJURIES

Good to go Thursday Hayes (ankle) is available for Thursday's game against the Suns, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Hayes didn't play in the Lakers' loss to the Magic on Tuesday due to a right ankle sprain, but he has been cleared to play in Thursday's contest and will serve as the top big man off the bench behind Deandre Ayton. Hayes has averaged 8.5 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.4 assists over 16.0 minutes per game since Feb. 1.

Likely to play Thursday Hayes (ankle) is probable for Thursday's game against Phoenix, Trevor Lane of LakersNation.com reports.
Impact Hayes is on track to return from a one-game absence because of a right ankle sprain. The 25-year-old center is averaging 6.8 points and 3.8 rebounds across 17.3 minutes per game this season. His return could mean fewer opportunities for Maxi Kleber and Jarred Vanderbilt.

Won't play Tuesday Hayes won't play in Tuesday's game against the Magic with a sprained right ankle, per Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com.
Impact The Lakers deem Hayes day-to-day ahead of his next chance to play Thursday, when Los Angeles takes on the Suns. Maxi Kleber should handle the No. 2 center spot behind Deandre Ayton, but that role doesn't seem to offer him much fantasy upside.

Tagged doubtful for Tuesday Hayes (ankle) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Magic, Broderick Turner of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Impact Coach JJ Redick said earlier in the day that the team is considering Hayes day-to-day, but it doesn't appear as though he'll be cleared to suit up for Tuesday's clash. Maxi Kleber would slot in as the backup center if Hayes is downgraded to out.

Considered day-to-day Hayes is being considered day-to-day after suffering a right ankle injury during Sunday's game against Boston, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
Impact The Lakers have yet to release their injury report for Tuesday's matchup with the Magic, so it remains to be seen what injury tag he'll carry leading up to tipoff. Hayes suffered the injury during the first quarter of Sunday's clash and was unable to return.

Impact Hayes exited the game in the first quarter and will not return due to a right ankle injury. Jarred Vanderbilt and Maxi Kleber could see extra minutes off the bench with Hayes sidelined. His status for Tuesday's game against the Magic is now in question.

Looks good in Thursday's start Hayes had 16 points (8-10 FG), seven rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals in 34 minutes during Thursday's 124-104 victory over the Mavericks.
Impact Making his third start in the last four games while Deandre Ayton (knee) is on the mend, Hayes tied his season scoring high while setting new season highs in minutes and steals. The 25-year-old center is averaging 13.7 points, 5.0 boards, 2.7 assists and 1.0 steals in 21.7 minutes over the last three contests, but his role is likely to shrink once Ayton is cleared to return.
