Lakers' D'Angelo Russell: Will take the court Tuesday

Updating a previous report, Russell won't be rested Tuesday against the Hornets and should start as usual, Baxter Holmes of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis:

The Lakers reportedly forgot to update their injury report after holding Russell out for rest Saturday, so he was still listed as an inactive. However, he's fully expected to take the court Tuesday, so look for Russell to start at point guard and see a full workload. Look for Brandon Ingram to move back to the bench in the corresponding move, while Jordan Clarkson, Nick Young and Lou Williams should see a slightly decreased role.
