Why? Did Magic find a blister on Ball's big toe and shut him down?

I think the Lakers want to assess the other players without Zo.

Bam played against 300-pound Karnowski :wink:.

A kind of player he will never see in the NBA. When he said bigger and better, Karnowski isn't the one that comes to mind.

Side note, there is one ONE "Zo"... and it ain't Lonzo Ball.

Which power forwards are you thinking of that you think will cause him problems? There aren't a lot of "big bodied" PFs these days...

The fan in me wish Lonzo was playing but I think this is the right move. Most of the top picks only played in 5-6 summer league games even if they also played in Utah or Orlando Summer leagues. Training staff being extra cautious with Lonzo just like Ingram.

Time for Kuzma to shine!

Sorry but whoever your rookie is, he isn't as entertaining as the ball boy!

Why do we have to wait 2 or 3 years to talk about Bam, when we can talk about all the other top picks right now?

Not necessarily - The Lakers still have some fire power. I have to admit though that watching the genius of Lonzo Ball was fun. Lonzo Ball and Ingram, Caldwell and Lopez should be able to do some balling
