Hart will return to the bench for Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies, Mike Trudell of Lakers.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Brandon Ingram (quad) returning to the starting lineup after sitting out the previous two games, Hart will return to his regular role as a reserve. He should still see a good amount of minutes off the bench, though it may not be near the 33.5 minutes he's been averaging over his four starts this month with Ingram and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope both back in the starting five.

Hart will start at shooting guard for Wednesday's game against the Rockets, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Lakers are set to be without Kentavious Caldwell-Pope for away games over the next month or so, which means Hart could get the occasional start. That will be the case Wednesday, so Hart should be in line for an increase in production and fantasy value. In his start last Thursday, Hart was impressive, posting 11 points, 10 rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block across 33 minutes.

Hart finished with 11 points (4-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block in 32 minutes during Thursday's 121-112 loss to the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis
Hart received his first career start with Kentavious Caldwell-Pope out due to personal reasons. He finished with season-highs in points, rebounds and minutes played, while also recording his first double-double. If Caldwell-Pope is forced to miss more time, Hart likely did enough to warrant another start. He is by no means worth a pickup in standard leagues but could be a nice streaming option if he does indeed receive another start.

Hart will start at shooting guard for Thursday's game against the Cavaliers due to Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (personal) being away from the team, Mike Trudell of Lakers.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hart has gotten some rotational minutes with the Lakers this season, posting 3.2 points and 2.2 rebounds across 13.9 minutes per game. With Caldwell-Pope out, however, Hart has a chance to see extended run. He's seen at least 20 minutes on three occasions, averaging 7.7 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1.0 assists in those games.

Hart was recalled from the G-League on Sunday, Mike Bresnahan of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hart has fallen out of the rotation entirely over the last few games for the Lakers, so the team opted to assign him to the G-League early last week to get him some extended court time. In two games with the team's G-League affiliate, Hart averaged 18.0 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.5 steals across 32.0 minutes. He'll now rejoin the Lakers ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Nuggets, but likely won't see enough minutes to be a relevant fantasy option.

Hart was assigned to the G-League's South Bay Lakers on Tuesday, Mike Bresnahan of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hart has been in the Lakers' rotation for most of the year, posting 2.5 points and 1.9 rebounds across 13.6 minutes per game. He saw two DNP-CDs over the past two contests, however. He'll seemingly be sent down to the G-League to gain some more in-game experience.

Hart (Achilles) is listed as active for Friday's game against the Suns, Tania Ganguli of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
After leaving Monday's practice with a Achilles bursitis, Hart was was sidelined for Thursday's season opening loss to the Clippers. However, the injury was apparently not all that serious, as he is set to suit up Friday. Regardless, he does not figure to crack the rotation.

Hart (Achilles) has been ruled out for Friday's season opener against the Clippers, Mike Bresnahan of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hart left Monday's practice with what was ultimately diagnosed as Achilles bursitis and has been unable to log a practice since, so his absence Thursday doesn't come as much of a surprise. Hart was not expected to be featured in the team's rotation to start the season, however, so his absence shouldn't have much of an impact.

Hart (Achilles) is considered questionable for Thursday's regular-season opener against the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
Hart has been diagnosed with Achilles bursitis and hasn't been able to take part in a full practice yet this week. That doesn't bode well for his chances of taking the court Thursday, though the Lakers aren't yet ready to make a ruling on his availability. Look for another update following the team's morning shootaround, but even if he's cleared, Hart isn't expected to play a significant role right away.

Hart (Achilles), who was originally thought to be dealing with a strain, is actually dealing with bursitis according to the MRI he received, Mike Trudell of Lakers.com reports. He did not practice Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
A timetable for his return has yet to be determined. He should be considered day-to-day until further notice. That said, he's unlikely to see much time in the team's rotation behind the likes of Lonzo Ball, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Jordan Clarkson.
