Lakers backup guard Dennis Schroder was not listed on the team's injury report Monday, saying he's healthy and ready to play Tuesday vs. Minnesota.
The Lakers need Schroder back for all that he brings as a key reserve and when called upon as a starter.Rui Hachimura delivered for the Lakers in a critical win over the Utah Jazz and is making a case for an expanded role vs. the Timberwolves on Tuesday.
Russell was traded to the Lakers by the Timberwolves in February. Vanderbilt and Beasley were traded last summer by the Wolves to Utah, which shipped the pair to the Lakers in February.“I mean, not the fact that they traded me has anything to do with it, but the fact that they are in the way of what we’re trying to get done, I mean, that’s all that really matters to me, honestly,” Russell said after Sunday’s game.
“I’ve been there, so I know what they like to get to,” he said. “I know those guys personally, their tendencies. So even just helping [teammates] scouting and trying to figure out their game plan and how they operate. It’s just much easier, especially because I got a couple of guys with me that have also been in this system and played with those guys. So it’s an advantage, for sure.
