What happened
Adou Thiero has still not played in the regular season because of left-knee swelling, and JJ Redick said he is trending in the right direction.
Redick said live work has gone well and hoped Thiero could be available by week’s end, while Los Angeles keeps using other forwards until he returns.
LINEUP CONTEXT
His return would affect the Lakers’ wing rotation, but the team still has not confirmed a game-night availability or role.
