SAD NEWS: Lakers star player decides to quit playing due to serious health issue
SAD NEWS: Lakers star player decides to quit playing due to serious health issue
Rui Hachimura of the Los Angeles Lakers has been downgraded to questionable for tomorrow’s away game against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
According to The Athletic’s Jovan Buha, the 6’8″ Gonzaga big fell Friday night during LA’s 118-111 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves and injured his left wrist. With what is being described as “left wrist soreness,” he may miss a crucial game for Los Angeles.
Los Angeles has lost four straight games and five of its last six. Hachimura is the club’s third big man, and he might start again (as he did for LeBron James on Thursday), because both James and Anthony Davis are questionable. James has a condition known as left ankle peroneal tendinopathy, whereas Davis has a left ankle sprain/bone bruise. His left adductor spasm appears to have resolved itself. Perhaps the Lakers simply ran out of room on the injury report.
Buha also mentions guards Gabe Vincent and, less notably, Jalen Hood-Schifino, as well as power forward Jarred Vanderbilt, as being probable.
We’ll find out soon enough. The action begins at 5 p.m. Tomorrow evening.
