Lakers' Christian Wood: Won't make season debut Thursday
Wood (knee) is listed as out for Thursday's game against the Trail Blazers, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
Wood is working his way back from arthroscopic left knee surgery that he underwent in early September, but he's still not ramped up enough to return to game action. Until the Lakers provide another update on his status, the veteran big man should be viewed as doubtful to suit up without a clear timetable for his return. That will likely be the case for Friday's game against the Hawks.

Lakers' Christian Wood: Resuming on-court workouts
Lakers head coach JJ Redick said Tuesday that Wood (knee) has been cleared to resume on-court workouts, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
After getting re-evaluated at some point last week, Wood received the green light to start ramping back up again, but his season debut doesn't look to be imminent just yet. Wood will spend the next few days working out with staff members in Los Angeles while the Lakers play in Sacramento on Thursday and Saturday, and he could then become integrated in practices once the team returns home. The journeyman center is working his way back from arthroscopic left knee surgery, which he underwent in early September.

Wood was nearing his re-evaluation date following an arthroscopic procedure in early September, but the big man isn't close to returning to game action. Even when healthy, Wood will have an uphill battle for playing time in the Lakers' crowded frontcourt, but he brings a unique skill set to the table.

Lakers' Christian Wood: Undergoes knee procedure
Wood underwent a successful arthroscopic surgical procedure on his left knee Monday, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
The forward will be re-evaluated in eight weeks, meaning he will miss the start of the 2024-25 season. This is a tough blow for Wood, as it will set him back with his offseason training. Wood exercised his $3.04 million player option in May and was already facing an uphill battle for playing time in the Lakers' crowded frontcourt, and this certainly won't help.
