Lakers' Jordan Clarkson: Listed as questionable for Friday's game

Clarkson (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Kings, Mike Bresnahan of Spectrum SportsNet reports.

Analysis:

Clarkson banged knees in Wednesday's game against the Spurs and sustained a contusion. He didn't participate in practice Thursday, so his availability will likely be better understood after Friday morning's shootaround. With the Lakers not playing for anything except improving their lottery positioning, it wouldn't be surprising to see coach Luke Walton act cautiously with Clarkson for the remaining four games of the season.
