Top Luke Kennard News

  • Lakers' Luke Kennard: Available for Game 2

    Kennard (neck) has been cleared to play in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals against the Thunder on Thursday, Dan Woike of The Athletic reports.

    Kennard evidently picked up the neck injury during Game 1, but the issue won't prevent him from taking the court Thursday evening. He'll presumably provide support off the bench behind Austin Reaves and Marcus Smart in Game 2.

  • Lakers' Luke Kennard: Questionable for Game 2

    Kennard is questionable for Thursday's Game 2 matchup with the Thunder due to neck soreness.

    Kennard must have tweaked his neck during Game 1 on Tuesday, and now he's in danger of sitting out Game 2. If he is forced to the sidelines, that would open up minutes for Jake LaRavia, Dalton Knecht and Bronny James.

  • Lakers' Luke Kennard: Moving back to bench

    Kennard will come off the bench in Friday's Game 6 of the Western Conference first-round series against Houston, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

    Kennard has started in every game of the series to date. However, with Austin Reaves moving back into the starting lineup, Kennard will come off the bench for the first time since the 139-96 loss to Oklahoma City on April 2.

  • Lakers' Luke Kennard: Held in check

    Kennard finished with seven points (3-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 32 minutes during Sunday's 115-96 loss to the Rockets in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    Kennard, who has been outstanding in this series, was finally held in check during Sunday's loss. Through four games, Kennard is averaging a whopping 39.5 minutes per contest with 17.8 points, 4.8 rebounds and 3.3 assists.

  • Lakers' Luke Kennard: Another standout performance

    Kennard contributed 23 points (8-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and three steals in 42 minutes during Tuesday's 101-94 win over Houston in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    Kennard continued his recent surge, having now scored 50 points in his past two games, powering the Lakers to a 2-0 series lead over the Rockets. It continues what has been a strong end to the season for the veteran, who is playing a sizeable role following injuries to both Austin Reaves (oblique) and Luka Doncic (hamstring). The next challenge for Kennard will be to repeat his heroics away from home when the two teams meet in Houston on Friday.

  • Lakers' Luke Kennard: Delivers 27 points in victory

    Kennard finished Saturday's 107-98 win over the Rockets in Game 1 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs with 27 points (9-13 FG, 5-5 3Pt, 4-6 FT), four rebounds and three assists across 38 minutes.

    Kennard has cemented himself as the primary beneficiary amidst the Lakers' injury woes. The team faced a bleary outlook coming into the series, considering Luka Doncic (hamstring) and Austin Reaves (oblique) are likely to miss the first-round series against the Rockets. Kennard has carried over his late-season heroics into the postseason and appears more than ready to continue the charge. He led all scorers in the game by a wide margin. If he can keep the stellar production going, the Lakers' chance of advancing will skyrocket.

  • Lakers' Luke Kennard: Hits for 19 against Phoenix

    Kennard closed with 19 points (6-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), one rebound, three assists and three steals across 28 minutes during Friday's 101-73 win over the Suns.

    It was another strong showing from Kennard, who's been keeping the Lakers' backcourt afloat in the absence of Luka Doncic (hamstring) and Austin Reaves (oblique). While starting the last four games, Kennard has averaged 14.5 points, 7.8 assists, 5.3 boards, 2.3 steals and 1.0 threes.

  • Lakers' Luke Kennard: Cleared to play Friday

    Kennard (finger) is available for Friday's game against Phoenix, Trevor Lane of LakersNation.com reports.

    Kennard popped up on Friday's injury report due to a left finger injury, but the veteran sharpshooter has been given the green light to play against the Suns. He has started in each of the Lakers' last three games, and over that span he has averaged 13.0 points, 9.3 assists, 6.7 rebounds and 2.0 steals over 32.0 minutes per game.

  • Lakers' Luke Kennard: May be rested

    Kennard is questionable for Friday's game against the Suns due to left finger injury management.

    Kennard may be rested for the second leg of this back-to-back set after logging 32 minutes with 14 points Thursday. Nick Smith and Bronny James could be pressed into larger roles if Kennard is held out.

  • Lakers' Luke Kennard: Busy on defense in win

    Kennard finished Thursday's 119-103 win over the Warriors with 14 points (6-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, eight assists and four steals in 32 minutes.

    Making his third straight start with Luka Doncic (hamstring) and Austin Reaves (oblique) both out, Kennard set a new season high in steals while scoring in double digits for a third straight contest. During his current starting stint, the 29-year-old guard is averaging 13.0 points, 9.3 assists, 6.7 boards, 2.0 steals and 0.7 threes in 32.0 minutes.

  • Lakers' Luke Kennard: Records triple-double Sunday

    Kennard provided 15 points (5-17 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 16 rebounds, 11 assists and one steal in 41 minutes during Sunday's 134-128 loss to Dallas.

    With Luka Doncic (hamstring), Austin Reaves (oblique) and Marcus Smart (ankle) sidelined, Kennard moved to the starting lineup, and the sharpshooter responded by notching the first triple-double of his career. Kennard has always had solid value due to his three-point shooting ability, but being a starter and holding a sizable role on offense should translate to a considerable uptick in his fantasy upside. With Reaves sidelined until early May in a best-case scenario and Doncic having an uncertain timetable to return, Kennard should continue to have a large offensive role during the final week of the regular season.

  • Lakers' Luke Kennard: Starting Sunday

    Kennard is in the starting lineup for Sunday's matchup with the Mavericks, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

    Kennard will draw the start at point guard due to Luka Doncic (hamstring) being out, and he'll be joined in the first unit by Jake LaRavia, LeBron James, Rui Hachimura and Deandre Ayton. In Kennard's previous start this season, he finished with 14 points (5-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds and five assists over 28 minutes.
