Per Vogel, an MRI revealed Nunn has a bone bruise on his right knee.

Nunn, who signed with the Lakers in August, missed time in the preseason with a sprained ankle. He did not play in Los Angeles' season opener against the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday.

Nunn, 26, has averaged 15.0 points and 3.0 assists over 123 career games (111 starts) with the Miami Heat.

The Lakers are also without forward Trevor Ariza (ankle surgery) and guards Talen Horton-Tucker (thumb surgery) and Wayne Ellington (hamstring).
