Lakers guard Jordan Farmar has strained his left hamstring in the first half of Los Angeles' home finale against the Sacramento Kings.

The Lakers said Farmar wouldn't return Tuesday night and wouldn't play in their season finale against the Clippers on Wednesday night.

The backup guard scored four points before his injury. He joined Kobe Bryant and Andrew Bynum in sitting out the rest of the regular season to rest for the playoffs, where the defending NBA champions will be the top seed in the Western Conference.

Farmar is averaging 7.3 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1.6 assists.
