Won't play in preseason opener
Thiero (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Suns, Thuc Nhi Nguyen of the Los Angeles Times reports.
ANALYSIS
Thiero's rookie debut will have to wait a bit longer, as he continues to work his way back from a knee injury that sidelined him for all of the Las Vegas Summer League. The next opportunity for the Arkansas product to play will be Sunday against the Warriors.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Should be ready for camp
Thiero didn't play in the Summer League while recovering from a knee injury sustained in college, but should be ready for the start of training camp in the fall, according to Dan Woike of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
The 21-year-old power forward was selected with the 36th pick in this year's draft and was part of the seven-team deal that sent Kevin Durant from Phoenix to Houston. Thiero, who spent his final year of college with Kentucky, will need to prove himself as a defensive stalwart to have a realistic chance of seeing minutes with the Lakers as a rookie, Woike adds. He averaged 15.1 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.6 steals while shooting 54.5 percent over 27 games during the 2024-25 season with Kentucky.
