Anyone who has watched the Los Angeles Lakers over the last couple months has been able to note Michael Beasley and his impact on the team — especially in comparison to the player he’d be taking minutes from in the rotation, Lance Stephenson.
So when Beasley walked off the court holding his hand during the Lakers’ 113-95 loss to the Utah Jazz, breaths were held around the organization and fan base alike.
Fortunately for all, x-rays to this point returned negative.
When Luke Walton was asked after the game about what Beasley offers, he pointed out what everyone watching should have noticed.
