The Los Angeles Lakers faced the Denver Nuggets tonight at ball arena in one of their final 10-row games this regular season. The team is mostly healthy, but veteran-forward Maxi Clever has been ruled out due to back soreness. Earlier this week, Clever was listed as questionable, but the Lakers made it official that he will not play against Nikola Jokic and company. His absence should not shake up head coach J.J. Reedic's rotation much, since Clever has been averaging just 11 minutes per game in his first full. Season with the team. On Tuesday against the New Orleans Pelicans, Clever was clear to play but stayed on the bench as a coaching decision. Fans can expect the Lakers to stick close to their usual lineup as they push through these key late season matchups on the road. The Daily News Now is powered by our sponsor, Lincoln the Description.
