Lakers’ Gary Vitti initially faulted himself for Julius Randle’s injury

Below is the second part of my Q&A with Lakers head athletic trainer Gary Vitti, who offered insight on Julius Randle’s season-ending leg injury and why he initially faulted himself for Randle’s ailment. I detailed Randle’s efforts in those areas as well as his improved dietary habits in the print edition. But below is an expansive transcript of part two of my interview with Vitti earlier this summer at the Lakers’ practice facility in El Segundo.

What do you remember about the night when Julius fractured his tibia in his right leg during the season opener last year?
