  • Lakers' Taurean Prince: Not on injury report

    Prince (personal) isn't on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Pacers.

    Prince was unavailable Friday against the 76ers while tending to a personal matter, but coach Darvin Ham said after the game he expected the 30-year-old to return to action Sunday. It appears as though Prince will be able to do so, and he's averaged 7.2 points and 3.2 rebounds in 19.7 minutes per game over his last six appearances.

  • Lakers' Taurean Prince: Won't play Friday

    Prince has been ruled out for Friday's game against the 76ers due to personal reasons, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.

    Prince was a late addition to Friday's injury report, and he'll be unable to suit up while tending to a personal matter. It's not yet clear whether he'll be able to return to action Sunday against Indiana, but Cam Reddish and Rui Hachimura could see increased usage in Prince's absence.

  • Lakers' Taurean Prince: Delivers in clutch win

    Prince logged 14 points (5-7 FG, 4-6 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist and one block in 22 minutes during Monday's 116-104 win over the Thunder.

    Prince was efficient and played a critical role as a floor spacer as the Lakers knocked off one of the top teams in the Western Conference. Prince's emergence snapped an ugly streak of compiling just six points on 3-for-12 shooting in 46 minutes of action across his last three appearances. He is averaging 6.4 shots per game since the All-Star break, so his production almost entirely depends on his ability to get hot from beyond the arc.

  • Lakers' Taurean Prince: Back to bench

    Prince will return to a reserve role in Friday's game versus the Spurs, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.

    Prince started in place of LeBron James on Thursday, but the latter is returning Friday. As a result, Prince should take on his usual reserve role off the bench.

  • Lakers' Taurean Prince: Tallies double figures in start

    Prince amassed 11 points (4-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block across 33 minutes during Wednesday's 138-122 win over the Jazz.

    Prince earned the start Wednesday due to the absence of LeBron James (ankle), Cam Reddish (ankle) and Max Christie (ankle), ending as one of six Lakers players in double figures in scoring to go along with a trio of rebounds. Prince has been a valuable role player for Los Angeles in being able to shift between the bench and starting lineup this season, something that has been key for instances like Wednesday with a list of players inactive. Prince has reached double figures in scoring in two of his last four games and in four of his last seven appearances.

  • Lakers' Taurean Prince: Starting at Jazz

    Prince will start during Wednesday's game against the Jazz, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    As expected, Prince will step into the starting lineup with the Lakers down LeBron James (ankle), Cam Reddish (ankle) and Max Christie (ankle). In 47 starts this season, Prince is averaging 9.6 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.7 assists. However, most of those starts came with the Lakers at or near full health.

  • Lakers' Taurean Prince: Moves to bench

    Prince will come off the bench for Saturday's game against the Knicks, Khobi Price of The Orange County Register reports.

    Prince had started in all 47 of his appearances coming into Saturday, but the Lakers are mixing it up with Rui Hachimura joining the first unit. Prince figures to be a key contributor for the bench unit with his floor spacing.

  • Lakers' Taurean Prince: Starting against Clippers

    Prince (knee) will start Tuesday's game against the Clippers, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Prince missed Sunday's contest against Portland due to left knee soreness, but it was mostly for maintenance. The veteran doesn't have any restrictions for Tuesday and will jump back into the starting lineup alongside Rui Hachimura and Anthony Davis in the frontcourt, with LeBron James (ankle) getting the night off.

  • Lakers' Taurean Prince: Not listed on injury report

    Prince (knee) isn't on the Lakers' injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against the Clippers, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.

    Prince was held out of Sunday's action against Portland due to left knee soreness, but he appears ready to return Tuesday. This is welcome timing for the Lakers, and Prince will likely be asked to shoulder a heavier workload than usual with LeBron James (ankle) already ruled out.

    Prince (knee) will not play Sunday against Portland, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.

  • Lakers' Taurean Prince: Questionable for Sunday

    Prince is questionable for Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers due to left knee soreness, Khobi Price of The Orange County Registerreports.

    In addition to Prince, LeBron James (ankle) and Anthony Davis (Achilles) are questionable, while Cam Reddish (knee) is probable. Prince has cooled off in January, posting averages of 8.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.8 three-pointers on 38.6 percent shooting from the field.

    McMenamin initially reported that Jarred Vanderbilt would enter the starting five in place of Prince, but coach Darvin Ham later stated that he misheard McMenamin's question during his pre-game press conference and confirmed that Prince would remain in the starting lineup. Prince is averaging 9.5 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.5 assists through six January appearances.

  • Lakers' Taurean Prince: Retreats to bench

    Prince isn't starting Monday's game against the Thunder, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.

    Prince will serve in a bench role for the first time this season, as the team has elected to roll with Jarred Vanderbilt at small forward Monday night. Head coach Darvin Ham noted in his pre-game presser that the Lakers will likely stick with this starting five for the "foreseeable future," per Khobi Price of The Orange County Register.
