ANALYSIS: It's unclear when Ariza picked up the ankle injury, and what exactly is going on with it, but it should be noted Ariza had missed previous practices during the week due to 'ankle soreness', so this may have been a lingering issue for the Lakers forward. Expect updates on his status closer to the eight-week timeline given by the team.
