Lakers’ rookie gets closer to making season debut with latest injury update

Cameron Carr was taken off of the Lakers’ injury report ahead of their game against the Raptors on Sunday.

Carr, whom the Lakers acquired from the Knicks after New York selected him with the 24th overall pick in the 2026 draft, has missed all six of the Lakers’ games this season because of a strained right oblique.

Carr’s potential debut could be well-timed for a Lakers’ bench that was outscored by the Warriors’ reserves, 50-7, in LA’s 112-95 loss to Golden State on Friday.

The 21-year-old shooting guard impressed in his first exhibition game with the Lakers, scoring 19 points in their win over the Kings on Oct. 5.

Last season for Baylor, Carr averaged a team-high 18.9 points on 49.4% shooting from the field, 5.8 rebounds and 2.6 assists.

Ziaire Williams (left foot injury) is questionable for the Lakers on Sunday and Adou Thiero (left knee injury management) remains out.

The Lakers (4-2) have back-to-back games against the Raptors on Sunday and the Heat on Monday.
