Lakers' Timofey Mozgov: To be reevaluated Thursday

Mozgov's (eye) initial CT scan came back inconclusive, Mike Trudell of Lakers.com reports. He'll be reevaluated Thursday when the team returns to Los Angeles.

Analysis:

The Lakers are looking to determine if Mozgov, who was diagnosed with a left eye contusion after being struck in the face in Tuesday's loss to the Pacers, is dealing with an orbital fracture. Mozgov has already been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Hawks while he awaits additional tests. We should see his status updated again within the next day or two, but look for Tarik Black to jump into the starting lineup at center in his place for at least Wednesday's contest.
