Trevor Ariza to be make season debut against Chicago Bulls after preseason ankle surgery

On a weekend that so much has gone awry for the Lakers, particularly on the injury front, the team ended Sunday with some good news as Trevor Ariza will make his debut against the Chicago Bulls, David Fizdale announced prior to the game.

A microcosm of the Lakers season is the fact that Fizdale, who is serving as the head coach while with Frank Vogel in health and safety protocols, announced Ariza’s availability roughly 24 hours after the team lost Anthony Davis to an MCL sprain for at least four weeks.
