The Los Angeles Lakers will be without Lonzo Ball and Brandon Ingram for the third consecutive game as the team has ruled them out for Friday’s matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves.
After dropping their first two games without Ball and Ingram, the Lakers regrouped and got a win against the San Antonio Spurs in overtime on Wednesday. But even coming off of an inspiring win, the Lakers could still use the help of their most promising youngsters.
Head coach Luke Walton said he doesn’t intend on bringing Ball back until he is 100 percent pain free and that may or may not be before the end of the season.
