Explore the latest developments concerning Rui Hachimura expected.
Rui Hachimura expected to return from calf injury early next week
If things go well for Rui Hachimura, he should be back in the Lakers lineup soon.
The Lakers’ injury list has gotten longer and longer recently, with Austin Reaves, Gabe Vincent and even rookie Adou Thiero ruled out for an extended period of time.
However, LA will likely have their starting-caliber forward, Rui Hachimura, back sooner rather than later.
Before the Lakers played their last game of 2025 against the Pistons, head coach JJ Redick stated that Hachimura could be back by early next week.
Hachimura missed LA’s game against Detroit due to right calf soreness, and with Redick confirming he’ll miss the weekend games, the soonest he could return would be on Jan. 6, when the Lakers play the Pelicans.

After missing two games last week due to right groin soreness, Lakers forward Rui Hachimura sat out on Tuesday vs. Detroit as a result of right calf soreness. The team is optimistic that it won’t be a long-term issue, writes Khobi Price of The Orange County Register.
“He’ll miss a couple games,” head coach JJ Redick said. “Then we’ll get him ramped up and, hopefully, he’s playing again in the next week.”
According to Dave McMenamin of ESPN (Twitter link), the expectation is that Hachimura will miss games on Friday and Sunday vs. Memphis. The Lakers will play a back-to-back set in New Orleans and San Antonio next Tuesday and Wednesday, so presumably the hope is that Hachimura will return for one or both of those games.

Hachimura was already ruled out on Tuesday after not practicing on Monday. He will miss at least a few games. Jake LaRavia will continue to start in his place.
