Veteran point guard Jose Calderon is expected to make his regular-season debut with the Lakers on Sunday against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Lakers Coach Luke Walton said. The team also is optimistic about rookie forward Brandon Ingram but will wait to see how he feels Sunday morning before making a final determination.
Both players participated in the Lakers’ Saturday practice at Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City.
“Once he cools down, it might be different, but he said he feels good,” Walton said of Ingram.
