The Los Angeles Lakers are set to face off agains the visiting Toronto Raptors on Sunday as they look to erase the bitter taste of their collapse against the Golden State Warriors on Friday. And they potentially will have reinforcements in the wing. Lakers rookie guard Cameron Carr was no longer on the team’s injury report heading into their game against the Raptors.

The No. 24 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft by the Lakers, Cameron Carr had suffered an oblique injury during the preseason and had been sidelined since. The Lakers were able to acquire Carr via trade with the New York Knicks moving up one spot from No. 25. The general consensus at the time was the Lakers grabbed a steal as the Baylor star was expected to be drafted higher.

Carr had a standout NBA Summer League, splitting time between the California Classic and Las Vegas. He appeared in a total of seven games, while averaging 17.4 points, 2.9 rebounds and 1.0 assists with splits of 42.3 percent shooting from the field, 29.2 percent shooting from the 3-point line and 72.7 percent shooting from the free-throw line. However, during the California Classic, his 3-point percentage was high at 40.9 percent.

He carried over his momentum from summer league to the first two games of the Lakers’ preseason schedule. In a little over 17 minutes, he averaged 12.0 points, 1.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 2.0 steals with splits of 47.1 percent shooting from the field, 40 percent shooting from the 3-point line and 100 percent shooting from the free-throw line.

As far as the rest of the injury report, forward Ziaire Williams remained questionable with a left foot injury. He has missed the last two games. And second-year forward Adou Thiero has been ruled out as he rehabs from a knee injury.
