Christian Wood: Breaking News

Let go by LAL

The Lakers waived Wood (knee) on Tuesday, NBA reporter Chris Haynes reports. The big man was waived in order to make room for veteran center Alex Len, who signed with the club on Tuesday. Wood didn't appear in a single game for the Lakers during the 2024-25 campaign while recovering from a left knee surgery that he underwent in September. The 29-year-old could latch on with a club looking for depth in the frontcourt, though his health is a glaring issue that could seemingly hold him back.

Remains out Thursday

Wood (knee) is listed as out for Thursday's game against the Warriors. Wood has yet to play this season while recovering from the left knee surgery he underwent in September. On Wednesday, head coach JJ Redick told Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.com that he had no formal update on the status of Wood, who appears safe to rule out through the All-Star break. With the Lakers adding Mark Williams at the trade deadline to supplement a frontcourt mix that already includes Jarred Vanderbilt, Jaxson Hayes and Dorian Finney-Smith, Wood will likely find himself out of the rotation once he returns to full health.

Out again, return date uncertain

Wood (knee) will not play Tuesday against the 76ers, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports. Wood has yet to play this season, and the Lakers haven't provided many updates on his status lately. Head coach JJ Redick said Dec. 30 that Wood had been cleared to participate in individual work, but just over two weeks later, Redick told Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.com that he had no updates on the status of Wood. The veteran big man might have suffered a setback, but in any case, he looks to be week-to-week more so than day-to-day.
