When Brandon Ingram and Rajon Rondo missed three games due to a suspension in late October, the Lakers went 2-1, while Rondo returned for a loss at San Antonio on Oct. 29 that served as the fourth game of Ingram’s suspension.
And with Ingram (sprained left ankle) and Rondo (broken right hand) both out of the last three games, L.A. have gone 2-1 once again.
After Wednesday’s practice at the UCLA Health Center, and just before the team took off on a flight to Houston for the first of a four-game road trip, Luke Walton said that Ingram won’t be on the trip … at least to start.
