Lakers guard (or “wing,” as the team seems to consider him) Lonnie Walker IV has shown himself to be a real two-way contributor on the team and another shrewd off-season signing (perhaps only outshone by the incredible value of the Thomas Bryant contract).
However, Walker has run into some injury issues the past few weeks — first missing time with a tailbone contusion, and over the weekend the team announced he is dealing with “left knee tendinitis.”
The team statement said Walker IV will be re-evaluated in two weeks, so we’ll have more information then.
