He played against the Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday after missing the previous two games with a knee ailment.
"I think he'll find a way," Lakers coach Phil Jackson told reporters. "There should be two to three days between our (final) game and the start of the playoffs, so I think he'll find a rhythm."
