Rui Hachimura of the Los Angeles Lakers will miss the upcoming NBA Cup game against the San Antonio Spurs due to a right ankle sprain, as confirmed by the latest injury report.

Head coach JJ Redick has adjusted the starting lineup, bringing in rookie Dalton Knecht and shifting Austin Reaves to point guard. With several key players sidelined, including Jaxson Hayes and Christian Wood, the Lakers will rely more on their taller players, including Christian Koloko and potentially LeBron James.
