Eligibility
Jalen Hood-Schifino (back) is out again for Friday's game against the San Antonio Spurs.
Fantasy Impact
Friday will mark the third-straight game that Hood-Schifino has missed because of a back issue. It's unclear when exactly he will be back, and the rookie may have to miss more time beyond this game. He doesn't get a ton of playing time even when healthy, so his continued absence won't carry any major fantasy implications.
Jalen Hood-Schifino (back) is out for Tuesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks.
Fantasy Impact
The rookie will miss Tuesday's game thanks to back spasms. He has found his way into Los Angeles' rotation on a number of occasions this year, but he hasn't gotten involved enough to be fantasy relevant, so managers are better off leaving him on the waiver wire for the time being.
The Los Angeles Lakers have selected G Jalen Hood-Schifino with the No. 17 overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft.
Fantasy Impact
Hood-Schifino offers good two-way skills and options with his pick-and-roll ability. He is a confident passer, which will help boost counting stats in fantasy leagues.
