There was a wave of breaking news about the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday, but not from the usual suspects like Adrian Wojnarowski, Shams Charania and Chris Haynes. Instead, it was the players that broke the news.
First, Kyle Kuzma reported that Jared Dudley could make his return for the Lakers this weekend. Dudley has been sidelined since March 3 with a torn MCL.
Then, Dennis Schröder hinted at his return on Instagram with a post captioned “I’m back.” Unfortunately, none of his Lakers teammates commented “that’s tuff” in response to the news.
