Jaxson Hayes: Breaking News

Strong effort off bench in Game 4

Hayes logged 18 points (6-8 FG, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one block in 27 minutes off the bench during Monday's 115-110 loss to the Thunder in Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals. The 25-year-old center was the only member of the Lakers' second unit to score in double digits in the season-ending loss -- the rest of the team's bench managed just five points combined. It was Hayes's best scoring effort of the playoffs, and he heads into free agency this offseason having averaged 7.5 points, 4.1 boards, 0.9 assists and 0.8 blocks in 18.3 minutes over 66 regular-season contests.

Chips in full stat line in win

Hayes accumulated six points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal in 21 minutes during Tuesday's 101-94 win over the Rockets in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs. Hayes had missed the Lakers' final four contests of the regular season due to left foot soreness, but he's back to handling his typical role as the top backup center behind Deandre Ayton this postseason. As long as Ayton stays healthy, however, Hayes could have a hard time cracking the 20-minute plateau on a consistent basis.

Not listed on injury report

Hayes (foot) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Saturday's Game 1 matchup with the Rockets. Hayes missed L.A.'s final four regular-season games, but he'll return to the floor Saturday. With Hayes back in the mix, Maxi Kleber could drop from the rotation entirely.
