Lakers' Jose Calderon: Remains out Tuesday vs. Hornets

Calderon (hamstring) is listed as out for Tuesday's game against the Hornets, Mark Medina of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

Analysis:

Calderon was able to complete running and shooting drills during the Lakers' morning shootaround, but he'll still be sidelined for a ninth straight game with the strained right hamstring. The veteran point guard believes he'll be able to take part in full-court practices within a few days, so a return before the end of December isn't out of the question. As the third-string option at his position, Calderon isn't a lock to be included in the team's rotation once healthy.
