The Los Angeles Lakers are going to be kicking off their 2018 preseason tonight against the Denver Nuggets. Fans are excited to see LeBron James don the purple and gold for the first time in a game. However, another new addition to the team will not be playing.
First-round pick, center Moritz Wagner, will not be suiting up on Sunday night. In fact, Wagner will not be suiting up at all during the preseason.
According to Lakers sideline reporter, Mike Trudell, Wagner will be sidelined the remainder of the preseason with a knee contusion.
