Los Angeles Lakers point guard Kent Bazemore left the team's game against the Los Angeles Clippers early after injuring his right foot, according to Mike Trudell of Lakers.com.

The Lakers entered the game with only nine active players before Bazemore, who was making his 14th start this season, went down in the second quarter.

X-rays showed there was no fracture in the foot, but Lakers officials announced that Bazemore would not return to the court and that he would have an MRI on the injured ankle on Monday.

Guard Jordan Farmar is scheduled to make his return from a strained groin on Tuesday to give the Lakers some increased depth.
