Louis Williams: Will not play Saturday in Portland

Williams is tend0ing to a personal matter and didn't travel with the Lakers to Portland for Saturday's game, Bill Oram of the Orange County Register reports.

Analysis:

Williams' grandfather passed away, so he'll take some time to be with his family Saturday, which could open up extended minutes for backcourt starters Jordan Clarkson and D'Angelo Russell. It's unclear if Williams will miss any further time beyond Saturday's game, so he's not certain to be available for Sunday's home date with the Pacers.
