They may have worked for Lakers legends Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and James Worthy, but it’s safe to say that Brandon Bass isn’t a fan of wearing protective goggles.
“After a couple of plays in the scrimmage, he threw them off and said, ‘I can’t wear these things,’” head coach Byron Scott said after Thursday’s practice. “And they broke. I don’t know if he thinks we only have one pair for him, but we’re going to try to get him to wear those things tomorrow to protect him as much as possible.”
Scott added that the team will allow Bass to decide whether he will wear them in-game or not.
