The Los Angeles Lakers will be without starting guard Marcus Smart and forward Rui Hachimura for their road game against the Pistons due to injuries, specifically right ankle and right calf soreness, respectively. Smart’s injury occurred during a recent game against the Magic, while Hachimura was seen with a wrapped calf and played limited minutes. Additionally, reserve big man Maxi Kleber will return to the lineup for the first time since March 8.
