Moves back to bench
Knecht is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the 76ers, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
Knecht made a spot start in the loss to the Grizzlies on Wednesday, posting three points, four rebounds and two assists in 27 minutes. He'll return to his regular role off the bench due to the return of Rui Hachimura (illness).

Left off injury report
Knecht (jaw) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the 76ers, Khobi Price of The Orange County Register reports.
Analysis
Knecht left Wednesday's clash with the Grizzlies after taking a shot to the mouth, but the issue isn't serious enough to keep him from Friday's game. He should be available to play a full complement of minutes and is averaging 17.1 minutes through the first eight appearances of his young NBA career.

Gets hurt late in loss
Knecht (jaw) left Wednesday's 131-114 loss to the Lakers in the fourth quarter and didn't return. He supplied three points (1-7 FG, 1-7 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal across 27 minutes before exiting.
Analysis
Knecht took an elbow from Jake LaRavia to the jaw and was removed from the contest. The severity of the injury is unclear, but there were only a few minutes left in the game and the Lakers trailed by double-digits, so it's possible the team was just being cautious. Per Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com, Knecht did not require any X-rays on his jaw postgame. His next chance to play will come Friday against Philadelphia.

Heads to locker room
Knecht went back to the locker room during Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies with what appears to be a jaw injury, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis
Knecht caught an elbow to the face from Jake LaRavia late in the fourth quarter and exited the game to go back to the locker room. Considering the Lakers are down double-digits with three minutes to play, it's unlikely Knecht will return.

Joins starting lineup
Knecht will move into the starting lineup Wednesday versus Memphis while Rui Hachimura (illness) is unavailable, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
Knecht enters the first start of his NBA career having exceeded 15 minutes of action on four occasions thus far, but his playing time has fluctuated overall. Knecht is a candidate to receive a steady diet of spot-up looks for a Lakers lineup in need of shooting.
