Nick Young is out with a knee injury for the Lakers, while Ronnie Price (elbow), Kobe Bryant (shoulder) and Julius Randle (knee) are all done for the season.
Jeremy Lin sat out Sunday’s loss to the Brooklyn Nets with an upper respiratory infection.
Philadelphia will play without Joel Embiid (back) and Tony Wroten (knee), both out for the year.
