Dealing with a rash of injuries, the Los Angeles Lakers were limited to eight available players for Tuesday’s practice. Kyle Kuzma predictably was withheld from practice due to a sprained right ankle, and he also has been ruled out for Wednesday’s game with the Denver Nuggets.
Meanwhile, Tyson Chandler (neck stiffness), Brandon Ingram (sore right shoulder) and Lance Stephenson (sprained toe) are each questionable for the matchup.
Though an X-ray came negative, Kuzma is scheduled to undergo a precautionary MRI. He initially expressed hope in being able to play against the Nuggets, though head coach Luke Walton never considered it a likely scenario.
