Lakers' Johnson out again Friday

Chris Humphreys-USA TODAY Sports

Wesley Johnson will miss a third straight game when the Los Angeles Lakers take on the Orlando Magic on Friday, as the forward continues to nurse a hip injury.

There is good news, however, as Johnson is expected to practice with the team on Saturday and could return to action against the Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday.

Johnson, who's started all 34 games he's suited up for, is averaging 9.4 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.6 assists.
