Dennis Schroder had thumb surgery Monday and will be reevaluated in three weeks, while Russell Westbrook's status for the regular-season opener is up in the air because of a hamstring strain.
Ham said Westbrook was able to participate in the Lakers' noncontact practice Monday, and the team won't know if the veteran guard will be able to play against the Warriors until he is evaluated Tuesday. He was listed as probable for the opener on Monday night's injury report.
"I thought he had got off to a great start, made a couple plays for his teammates. But then having to exit the game, that's the last look you get," Ham said. "We'll keep working him through it, and continue to evaluate our roster, and continue to see what rotation fits -- not just the starters."Davis, who missed three of the Lakers' six preseason games because of lower back tightness, said he would have "no restrictions" for the Warriors game.
, who will begin his 20th season on Tuesday against his old Finals foe, is hoping health will be on his team's side, unlike last season.," James said Monday. "Health has always been a big piece for our club since I've got here. That's the only vision, come in and be as healthy as possible and give ourselves a chance to win every night."
