INJURIES

Listed as probable for Sunday Hayes (knee) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Raptors, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.
Impact Hayes has been on the Lakers' injury report the past few days due to left knee soreness, but the issue isn't serious enough for him to be sidelined. He's averaging 5.7 points and 4.4 rebounds over 17 minutes to start the 2024-25 regular season.
NOVEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Good to go Hayes (knee) is available for Friday's matchup with the 76ers.
Impact No surprise here, as Hayes drew a probable designation prior to the game. Barring any setbacks, the big man should take on his usual role providing depth in Los Angeles' frontcourt.
NOVEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Probable for Friday Hayes is probable for Friday's game against the 76ers due to left knee soreness, Khobi Price of The Orange County Register reports.
Impact The probable tag suggests Hayes should play Friday, although his role is uncertain. If Anthony Davis (heel) ends up being available, then Hayes would return to his regular role off the bench. Hayes got the start in Wednesday's loss to the Grizzlies and posted eight points, 10 rebounds and an assist across 35 minutes.
NOVEMBER 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Starting vs. Memphis Hayes is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
Impact Hayes will get the nod at center with Anthony Davis (ankle) sidelined. However, head coach JJ Redick stated prior to Wednesday's contest that he'll look to give Christian Koloko some minutes, so Hayes is not expected to absorb all of Davis' minutes. His fantasy upside should remain relatively low even if he's going to get promoted to a starting role.

JJ Redick Acknowledges Investigation of Jaxson Hayes After New Video of 2021 Incident Hayes was arrested for the incident in 2021 and served community service time.
NOVEMBER 3, 2024 • SI.COM
NBA reopening investigation The NBA is reopening an investigation into a 2021 altercation involving Hayes and his former girlfriend, ESPN's Dave McMenamin reports.
Impact The NBA did not discipline Hayes following its initial investigation into Hayes' 2021 arrest, but new footage was released by TMZ on Saturday. "We're obviously aware that the investigation has been reopened, and we're going to cooperate fully," coach JJ Redick said after Saturday's practice.
NOVEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Blocks two shots Friday Hayes supplied four points (1-1 FG, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and two blocks over 15 minutes during Friday's 131-125 victory over the Raptors.
Impact Hayes blocked a season-high two shots, although his playing time remains underwhelming. Anthony Davis has started the season on fire, limiting Hayes to just 15.7 minutes per night. While he can be a decent per-minute producer, he would need for Davis to miss time to have any shot at playing meaningful minutes.
NOVEMBER 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Available to face Phoenix Hayes (foot) is available for Friday's game against the Suns, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.
Impact Hayes was widely expected to be available, so this isn't surprising. The big man will continue to operate as Anthony Davis' primary backup at the center position.
OCTOBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Expected to play Friday Hayes is listed as probable for Friday's game versus the Suns due to left foot soreness.
Impact Despite being a late addition to the injury report, Hayes is still expected to suit up Friday. The 24-year-old big man logged 15 minutes in the Lakers' season opener and should continue to serve as the team's backup center with Christian Wood (knee) and Jarred Vanderbilt (foot) sidelined.
OCTOBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Starting in preseason finale Hayes is in the starting lineup for Friday's preseason game against the Warriors, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Impact The Lakers are resting their projected Opening Night starters and several key reserves, so Hayes will try to impress the coaching staff to secure a roster spot as a frontcourt alternative.
OCTOBER 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Starting versus Timberwolves Hayes will start at center in the Lakers' preseason opening matchup against the Timberwolves, Khobi Price of The Orange County Register reports.
Impact With LeBron James (rest) and Anthony Daivs (rest) sidelined for the exhibition opener, Hayes will start alongside Rui Hachimura. The big man is looking to earn a role providing depth in Los Angeles' frontcourt this season.
OCTOBER 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
D'Angelo Russell, Jaxson Hayes will opt into contracts with Lakers for 2024-25 Russell will have an $18.7 million salary for next season as part of a two-year contract he signed with the Lakers last offseason.
JUNE 29, 2024 • DAILYNEWS.COM
Picking up player option Hayes informed the Lakers on Friday that he will exercise his $2.4 million player option for the 2024-25 season, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Impact Hayes likely would have been on track for a one-year contract at a similar salary level in free agency had he declined the option, so he'll stick around in Los Angeles with the hope that he can solidify himself as the top backup center under first-year head coach JJ Redick. Previous coach Darvin Ham deployed Hayes as Anthony Davis' primary backup in 2023-24, though the Lakers were without Hayes' main competitors for the position -- Jarred Vanderbilt and Christian Wood -- for much of the season due to injury. Vanderbilt and Wood are both healthy again and are under contract for the upcoming season, so Hayes could struggle to reach the 70 appearances and 12.5 minutes per contest he averaged in 2023-24.
JUNE 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Back in reserve role Hayes Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com Friday's game against the Grizzlies, Ryan reports.
Impact Hayes drew a spot start at center Tuesday while Anthony Davis missed time with a headache, but the Texas product will retreat to the bench Friday. Hayes is averaging 7.0 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.2 steals in his last five appearances as a reserve.
APRIL 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Enters starting lineup Hayes will start Tuesday's game against the Warriors, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
Impact Anthony Davis is sidelined with a headache, so the Lakers will turn to Hayes as their starting center. In four starts this season, Hayes has averaged 11.0 points, 7.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 2.3 steals.
APRIL 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Fills in with 19/10 double-double Hayes closed with 19 points (8-9 FG, 3-5 FT), 10 rebounds, one block and five steals in 33 minutes during Sunday's 127-117 loss to Minnesota.
Impact Hayes filled in nicely after Anthony Davis (eye) headed to the locker room. HIs 19 points marked a season-high as well as his second consecutive double-double. Although he only averages 12.4 minutes per game, Hayes has appeared in 67 games for the Lakers and is a shoo-in to make the 15-player roster for the playoffs.

Cleared to play Tuesday Hayes (calf) is active for Tuesday's game against Toronto, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Hayes will return from one-game absence due to a left calf contusion. Anthony Davis (knee) remains questionable but is expected to suit up Tuesday as well, Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca reports.
APRIL 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Probable for Tuesday Hayes (calf) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Raptors, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Hayes was a late scratch ahead of Sunday's win over the Nets due to a calf contusion but will suit up Tuesday, which is the second half of a back-to-back set. In March (13 games), Hayes has averaged 5.5 points and 4.5 rebounds in 15.2 minutes per game.
APRIL 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Won't play Sunday Hayes has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Nets due to a calf contusion, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
Impact Hayes wasn't listed on the initial injury report and was scratched just an hour before tipoff. The Lakers won't have a true backup center available behind Anthony Davis (knee), so they'll likely have to play small ball with the second unit. Hayes' next chance to suit up comes Tuesday in Toronto.
MARCH 31, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Coming off bench Friday Hayes isn't starting Friday's game against the Pacers, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
Impact Hayes started in Wednesday's win over Memphis and tallied 14 points, seven rebounds, an assist, a steal and a block in 30 minutes. However, he'll retreat to the bench Friday since Anthony Davis (knee) has been cleared to play.
MARCH 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Solid in starting role Hayes finished Wednesday's 136-124 win over the Grizzlies with 14 points (6-7 FG, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 30 minutes.
Impact Hayes moved into the starting unit Wednesday with Anthony Davis (knee) out of action, and he was able to give the Lakers 31 minutes on the second night of a back-to-back set despite picking up five fouls. Hayes finished with his second-best scoring total of the season while missing just one of his seven field-goal attempts, and he added seven boards, third-most on the team. It's unclear if Davis will need to miss additional time -- if so, Hayes could hold some value as a low-end streamer in fantasy leagues for managers needing boards, though he's not a viable option when Davis is in the lineup.
MARCH 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Starting Wednesday Hayes will move into the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies with Anthony Davis (knee) unavailable, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
Impact Hayes was limited by foul trouble in his previous start this season and finished with just five points, five rebounds, two assists, one steal and one turnover to his credit over 20 minutes. However, he'll draw an extremely favorable matchup against a Memphis team featuring a bevy of players on two-way contracts and 10-day deals, so he could still be worth a dice roll in fantasy hoops.
