D’Angelo Russell was the latest Laker to suffer an injury, exiting Thursday’s contest against the Warriors with a right ankle injury, proving not even newly-acquired Lakers are immune to the inescapable fate of suffering an injury at some point this season.
Russell suffered the injury during the first quarter of the game.
Lakers say D'Lo is out for the rest of the game with a right ankle sprain.
