Shootaround Report: Lakers Making Changes Before Taking On Suns

Mike D'AntoniThe Lakers were disappointing in their first game with Kobe Bryant back in the lineup. With the starters struggling on Sunday, Coach D’Antoni has decided to insert Shawne Williams and Jodie Meeks back into the starting lineup in order to give the Lakers more shooting and space out the floor more. The atmosphere will be special tonight as Staples Center will participate in a ‘Black Out.’

Of course the question with this Lakers team will be defense, especially with the Suns boasting two quick, effective point guards. The job of containing them is made even more difficult without Jordan Farmar, but he is progressing, and could be back with the team in due time.

Lakers starters tonight: Blake, Meeks, Bryant, Williams and Gasol. Two changes there with Johnson/Sacre out for Meeks/Williams.

Jordan Farmar had ultrasound today on torn hamstring, per Lakers. Showed improvement, but Farmar still has “a ways to go.”
