Grizzlies vs. Lakers Full Game 6 Injury Report

In this story:
The Memphis Grizzlies are in Los Angeles for Game 6 on Friday night. After winning on their home floor in Game 5, the Grizzlies forced another game in Los Angeles. Looking to force a Game 7 at home, the Grizzlies will have to pick up a massive win on the road.
Entering this game, the key injury status to watch for is Luke Kennard's. The Grizzlies sharpshooter injured his left shoulder in the Game 5 victory, catching his arm in a LeBron James screen. Kennard is currently listed as questionable, and will have an official status update shortly before game time.
In addition to Kennard's questionable status, the Grizzlies will remain without Brandon Clarke, Steven Adams, and Jake LaRavia. For the Lakers, their injury report remains the same, as LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and Dennis Schroder are all probable to play.
It goes without saying, but this is a massive game for both teams. While the Lakers have the luxury of not facing elimination in this one, heading back to Memphis for a Game 7 is something they certainly want to avoid. For the Grizzlies, a first round exit would be incredibly disappointing, even despite the Lakers being an unordinary 7th seed. A Game 6 victory would have the Grizzlies feeling great about their chances, especially after once being down 3-1 in the series.
