Toscano-Anderson (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Nuggets, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Toscano-Anderson missed his first game of the season Friday. That coincided with Anthony Davis' (back) first absence, so Damian Jones, Wenyen Gabriel and Troy Brown saw increased minutes. More information should be available closer to tipoff.

Toscano-Anderson (ankle) is listed as out for Friday's game versus the Timberwolves, Kyle Goon of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Toscano-Anderson has averaged 3.5 points, 3.3 rebounds and 0.8 assists in 16.5 minutes through four games this season. With Toscano-Anderson out with a left ankle sprain, Wenyen Gabriel and Troy Brown should be in line for extended minutes as backup forwards Friday.

Toscano-Anderson closed with eight points (3-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal over 22 minutes during Thursday's 103-97 loss to the Clippers.

EDGE Analysis

Toscano-Anderson played meaningful minutes in the loss, although his lack of productivity highlighted the lack of depth the Lakers have at the moment. Outside of LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Lonnie Walker, no one on the roster scored more than the eight points put up by Toscano-Anderson. While he could have a somewhat consistent role, there is little reason to be adding him outside of deeper formats.

Toscano-Anderson (back) is available for Friday's preseason game against the Warriors, Mike Trudell of the Lakers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Toscano-Anderson sustained a back bruise during Sunday's preseason win over Golden State and was unavailable for Wednesday's exhibition game against Minnesota. However, he returned to practice Thursday and will return to action for Friday's preseason finale.

EDGE Analysis

Toscano-Anderson (quadriceps) is starting Sunday's preseason game against the Warriors, Mike Trudell of the Lakers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Toscano-Anderson exited Thursday's exhibition matchup with a right quad contusion and didn't practice Saturday, but he'll start for the Lakers a day later. In spite of his starting role Sunday, he'll likely take on a bench role once the regular season begins.

Toscano-Andeson (quad) didn't take the floor for practice Saturday, Broderick Turner of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Toscano-Anderson suffered a quad contusion during Thursday's preseason tilt versus the Timberwolves and is still feeling the effects a couple of days later. When healthy, Toscano-Anderson figures to handle a bench role for the Lakers in 2022-23 after contributing for the Warriors each of the last three campaigns. It remains to be seen if he will suit up Sunday against his former team.

Toscano-Anderson suffered a right quad contusion and is out for the remainder of Thursday's preseason contest against the Timberwolves, Mike Trudell of the Lakers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Toscano-Anderson managed to play 15 minutes before being forced to exit the game with a quad contusion. The forward knocked down a couple of triples before exiting.

Tuscano-Anderson agreed to join the Lakers on a minimum deal Thursday, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Toscano-Anderson wasn't extended a qualifying offer by the Warriors after averaging 4.1 points, 2.4 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 13.6 minutes of action during the regular season. The forward will add depth to the Lakers' already crowded frontcourt. The 2021-22 NBA champion will likely see limited minutes behind Stanley Johnson and Wenyen Gabriel.

Toscano-Anderson was not extended a qualifying offer by the Warriors on Wednesday, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports. He becomes an unrestricted free agent.
