The Los Angeles Lakers have been dealing with a number of minor injuries throughout training camp. The hope was that these would subside before the regular season opener, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.
While Brandon Ingram quickly returned from his injury, and Lonzo Ball is set to be ready for Thursday’s matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers, the same can’t be said for Julius Randle and Andrew Bogut.
According to Mike Bresnahan of Spectrum SportsNet, both Randle and Bogut are inactive for the Lakers’ season opener:
Julius Randle, Andrew Bogut inactive for opening night, as per NBA email sent to all teams.
