Carmelo Anthony will miss Saturday’s game due to the right hamstring strain that kept him out of the second half of Thursday’s game.
LeBron James (left knee soreness/effusion) is doubtful. – 8:03 PM

📅 On this day in 2009, the @Denver Nuggets Carmelo Anthony scored 32 points in a win over the Thunder, surpassing 10,000 career points in the process.
Anthony is the fourth-youngest player in NBA history to reach that mark, trailing only LeBron James, Kevin Durant, and Kobe Bryant. pic.twitter.com/ETsLx72v9T – 1:01 PM

Fans should wait until Durant’s replacement is picked before freaking out about no All-Stars, I still think Melo has a good chance to be the choice.
If he’s not? A little more motivation for him, he will get there it’s only a matter of time. – 4:41 AM

I’m nervous about Carmelo. Hamstrings are tricky, especially with older players. I wonder if the Lakers more aggressively pursue forwards at the deadline if they’re worried about this injury, but for now, it’s too early to speculate. – 1:35 AM

LAL trail 59-54 at the half, with LAC scoring the final four points of the period.
We’ll have an update on ‘Melo soon. Anthony, who was critical to LAL’s win last night, had 7 points in 11 minutes of this 2nd night of a B2B. – 11:05 PM

Carmelo Anthony appears to have hurt something on that last offensive possession, and asked for a sub as LAC leaked out in transition for a dunk. He walked straight to the locker room. – 11:00 PM

Melo hit a pair of 3’s around a Reaves triple, and Howard drew the 3rd PF on Hartenstein with an and-1.
LAL lead 40-36 with 8:23 left in the 2nd Q. – 10:41 PM
