Lakers' Jose Calderon: Out Monday

Calderon (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Jazz, Mark Medina of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

Analysis:

Calderon's right hamstring strain will keep him sidelined for at least one game after sustaining the injury in Saturday's loss to the Grizzlies. The veteran had started nine of the Lakers' last 10 games in place of D'Angelo Russell (knee), but with both players out Monday, expect either Jordan Clarkson or Marcelo Huertas to jump into the starting five. Clarkson will end up seeing the bulk of the duties at point guard regardless of whether or not he starts.
