If the Lakers are going to begin to put the pieces together, they’ll need their young core to be on the court together as much as possible. The Kobe era is over, so it all begins now.
A key ingredient to what they’re trying to do in L.A. is Julius Randle. After missing his rookie season after breaking his leg in the first game, the former Kentucky Wildcat showed some promise last season. on Tuesday, he apparently suffered a set back, but it doesn’t sound quite as bad as a broken leg. Randle lacerated his hand and needed 7 stitches. He is to be reevaluated in 2 weeks.
Los Angeles Lakers forward Julius Randle will be out of commission for a few weeks this offseason after lacerating the webbing on his right hand. He had seven stitches, the Lakers said Tuesday, and will be re-evaluated in two weeks.
