Hill (illness) had an underwhelming night Friday in a loss to the Thunder, scoring 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-2 FT) in 21 minutes.

Hill only had two rebounds the entire game, his lowest total in a game all season. Hill missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday with an upper respiratory infection, but it's unclear if he was still hampered by the illness Friday.

Hill (illness) is expected to play Friday against the Thunder, the Orange County Register reports.

Hill missed both Wednesday's practice and Thursday's practice due to an upper-respiratory infection, but appears to be in line to play Friday despite the illness. If he is healthy, Hill may play his normal minutes, but he could also see limited minutes due to the issue.

Hill (illness) did not practice Thursday but remains probable to play against the Thunder, Mike Trudell of Lakers.com reports.

Hill is still battling the upper respiratory infection that kept him out of Wednesday's session, but the team maintains that he's expected to take the floor Thursday night. A final call likely won't be made until shortly before the 10:30 PM ET tip.

Hill missed Wednesday's practice with an upper respiratory infection but is expected to play Thursday against the Thunder, Lakers reporter Mike Trudell reports.

While the Lakers remain optimistic with regard to Hill's status, a final call likely won't come until he's evaluated at Thursday's shootaround. While Hill has been rather inconsistent of late, scoring in single-digits in three of his last four contests, he's notched two double-doubles this month, and he strung together six straight games of 10 or more rebounds near the middle of November.

Hill scored six points (3-8 FG) and added six rebounds, five assists, two steals and one block in 28 minutes of play versus the Kings on Tuesday.

Hill didn't have a great scoring night, as he only chipped in six points, but the rest of this numbers are great to see. He added value in assists (5), steals (2) and blocks (1). Additionally, he did get the second most minutes behind Kobe Bryant (36) and seems to be in good graces with coach Byron Scott, so his relatively solid production should continue.

Hill scored eight points (4-11 FG) and added seven rebounds, one steal and two blocks in 26 minutes against the Pelicans on Sunday.

Over his last 10 games Hill is averaging 13 points, nine rebounds and one block in 30 minutes of action. In the carousel that is the Lakers lineup, Hill has been consistent with his minutes. As a result he continues to produce solid, not great, fantasy numbers.

Hill provided 22 points (10-15 FG, 2-2 FT) and 13 rebounds in 31 minutes in the win over the Pistons on Tuesday.

Hill has back-to-back double-doubles and has eight double-doubles in his last 10 games. He is making the most of his extra minutes as a starter and helped the Lakers win consecutive games for the second time this season.

Hill scored 16 points (6-11 FG, 4-5 FT) with 12 rebounds and three blocks in 34 minutes during Sunday's OT win over the Raptors.

After taking a couple of games off, Hill got right back on the double-double train. He's averaging career highs in most categories and is showing some nice chemistry with Kobe Bryant on the offensive end, so don't expect Hill to slow down any time soon.

Hill scored 11 points (2-8 FG, 7-8 FT) to go along with 14 rebounds in 42 minutes of action on Sunday.

Jordan Hill remains the only constant on the Lakers roster with his production. What is also noticeable is the amount of free throw attempts he had, which suggests that he is not only relying on his mid-range jumpshots to score. He has been overachieving for the past year now, but that doesn't take away from the consistency he has displayed over that time as well.

Hill scored 16 points (7-7 FG, 2-2 FT) and grabbed 10 rebounds in 28 minutes during the Lakers loss to the Mavericks Friday.

Hill also added two assists, a steal, and a block in the effort. The game marks Hill's fifth double-double in a row.

Hill scored 16 points (7-12 FG, 2-2 FT), with 10 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 35 minutes during Wednesday's win over the Rockets.

Hill took full advantage of the Rockets not having Dwight Howard inside, and he's turned into a double-double machine to this point in the 2014 season. His fantasy value makes him a strong option for daily fantasy games (depending on cost), and also a player to own in standard leagues as well.

Hill recorded 13 points (6-17 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 14 rebounds, three assists, two steals and three blocks in 35 minutes during the Lakers' 107-102 loss versus the Grizzlies on Tuesday.

It was Hill's second double-double in the last three games, and over the last five games he is averaging 17.2 points (52.9 FG, 0.0 3Pt, 73.7 FT), 9.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 0.6 steals and 1.8 blocks in 33 minutes per game. Hill has established himself as the team's most consistent big man, and his presence is invaluable on the Lakers, who are a porous defensive unit. Expect Hill to continue seeing plenty of playing time so long as he is healthy, and if he can keep things going offensively he's likely to retain must-own status all season regardless of format.

Hill scored 15 points (4-10 FG, 7-9 FT), with 15 rebounds, three blocks, two assists and a steal in 34 minutes during Tuesday's loss to the Suns.

Hill hadn't been as active on the boards as he was tonight, but it's a great sign to see him taking over on the glass, specifically on the offensive end (nine offensive rebounds). Hill is turning into one of the most consistent players on the Lakers right now, and is worth having in most lineups moving forward.

Hill scored 23 points (10-14 FG, 3-4 FT) for the second consecutive night, adding five rebounds, four assists, and three blocks in 33 minutes in Saturday's loss to the Warriors.

After two sub par shooting nights to open the season, Hill has now combined to go 20-of-29 for 46 points in his last two games. Key to that production is the fact that he has played 33 minutes in both contests and if coach Byron Scott continues to give him big minutes, he'll continue to be a must-own player in fantasy leagues.

Hill was considered probable for the season opener with a neck issue, but took his place in the starting lineup, scoring seven points (2-7 FG, 3-4 FT) with 10 rebounds, one assist and one block in 23 minutes.

The minutes total is a little low, but with the lop-sided nature of the contest, no one on the Lakers topped 30 minutes. Now with Julius Randle's broken right tibia, the front court depth thins a little and Hill should get back to close to 30 minutes a game and remains a solid option in all leagues.

Hill (neck) is considered probable for Tuesday's opener against the Rockets, Bill Oram of the OC Register reports.

Hill sat out Friday's preseason finale with a minor neck strain, but after a weekend of rest he has a good chance to join the Lakers' for opening night. The Arizona product projects to start at center this season, and he'll share time with Ed Davis.

Hill will not in Friday's preseason finale due to a stinger.

Hill's stinger will hold him out of Friday's preseason game, but they usually don't last long. It shouldn't effect his status for the team's regular season opener unless it turns out to be something more serious. Ed Davis and Robert Sacre will start up front for the Lakers Friday.

Hill scored 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-3 FT) with 14 rebounds and two blocks in 28 minutes Thursday in the blowout loss to the Jazz.

It was Hill's second double-double of the preseason and he's also blocked at least one shot in the last three tilts. Hill will start at center for the Lakers this season and if he can stay healthy, a big if so far in his career, he'll be a valuable fantasy contributor.

Hill scored eight points (3-8 FG, 2-2 FT) with seven rebounds, including four on the offensive end, two assists, and one block in 21 minutes Sunday.

Hill will be the Lakers' starting center this season and if he can close in on 30 minutes a night, will be a very valuable fantasy option. Target him toward the end of your drafts and he could produce some nice upside, particularly in points, rebounds, and blocks.

Hill was the Lakers' starting center for the preseason opener and pulled down a double-double of 10 points (4-5 FG, 2-3 FT) and 11 rebounds in just 19 minutes Monday.

Hill was a per-minute beast last season, averaging 16.7 points and 12.8 rebounds per-36 minutes. If coach Byron Scott unleashes Hill and his fitness has improved, he good separate himself from the rest of the Lakers' frontcourt and be a mid-late round fantasy option.
