Lakers' Brook Lopez: Starting Monday vs. Indiana
Lopez (back) will start Monday's game against the Pacers.
Lopez has been dealing with a back injury for the better part of the last week, but he'll remain in the lineup after carrying a "probable" designation into the day. After seeing his role dwindle in January and February, the veteran is averaging a shade under 30 minutes per game in March, with averages of 19.0 points, 4.2 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.7 blocks per game for the month.
