Starting vs. Bucks Ariza will start Tuesday's game against the Bucks, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Ariza gets the nod over Stanley Johnson after the former played 35 minutes in the Lakers' last game. In contests that Ariza has seen at least 20 minutes, he's averaged 6.6 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.9 assists in 25.1 minutes.

FEBRUARY 9, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Plays season-high 35 minutes Ariza supplied 11 points (3-9 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one block in 35 minutes during Saturday's 122-115 overtime victory over New York.

Impact Ariza played more minutes than both Russell Westbrook and Stanley Johnson, who both started the contest. The veteran forward was largely inefficient from the field but was still able to score in double figures for just the second time this season. He also grabbed a season-high eight rebounds and tied his season high with three assists. The absence of Carmelo Anthony (hamstring) and the game going into overtime likely inflated Ariza's stats a tad, but either way, he's still a player worth monitoring moving forward due to his trust with LeBron James and the Lakers' coaching staff.

FEBRUARY 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Cast out of rotation Ariza (coach's decision) didn't play Tuesday in the Lakers' 106-96 win over the Nets.

Impact Though it was Stanley Johnson who unseated him as the Lakers' starting power forward Tuesday, Ariza's minutes (and Dwight Howard's) were mostly diverted to Anthony Davis (knee), who logged 25 as Los Angeles' starting center in return from a 17-game absence. Ariza's move from the starting five to outside of the rotation isn't unjustified, as he had posted lowly averages of 2.6 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 18.8 minutes per game while shooting an abysmal 25 percent from the field. The 36-year-old forward's time in the NBA looks to be nearing an end.

JANUARY 26, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Coming off bench Ariza will come off the bench Tuesday against the Nets, Mike Trudell of the Lakers' official site reports.

Impact Ariza has started five of the past six games, but he'll come off the bench with Stanley Johnson moving back into the starting five and Anthony Davis (knee) making his return at center. As a reserve this season, Ariza is averaging 4.7 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 16.9 minutes.

JANUARY 26, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Fails in loss Ariza ended with zero points (0-5 FG, 0-5 3Pt) and five rebounds over 15 minutes during Sunday's 113-107 loss to the Heat. He also had four turnovers.

Impact Ariza was a main culprit in the Lakers' lowly 27.5 percent shooting from beyond the arc as a team. Ariza has gone scoreless in four out of 10 January contests, failing to hit double-digit scoring in any of them. He remains off of fantasy radar.

JANUARY 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Back with first unit Ariza is starting Monday's game against the Jazz, Kyle Goon of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact Ariza came off the bench Saturday against the Nuggets, finishing with nine points, three boards and three dimes in 21 minutes. His effort was evidently enough to give him another shot with the first unit, bumping Malik Monk to a bench role.

JANUARY 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Coming off bench Ariza will come off the bench Saturday against the Nuggets, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.

Impact The Lakers will opt to start Dwight Howard to face off against Nikola Jokic. Ariza could still see extra minutes since Carmelo Anthony (back) is out.

Rejoins starting lineup Ariza will start Wednesday's game at Sacramento, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.
