The activity in the Lakers’ trainer’s room has become pretty fluid. But they believe it will soon subside.
Lakers center Roy Hibbert experienced soreness in his right knee during Monday’s practice. But Hibbert declined to have an MRI or x-rays taken and is considered probable to play in Tuesday’s game against the Sacramento Kings in Las Vegas.
“He says he feels fine and there’s a little swelling in there,” Lakers coach Byron Scott said. “We’ll see how he feels tomorrow.”
The Lakers have already ruled out Marcelo Huertas out against the Kings, marking the fifth consecutive game he will miss because of a strained right hamstring.
