Los Angeles Lakers: Lonzo Ball listed as questionable vs. Kings

The Los Angeles Lakers will be playing their fourth preseason game against the Sacramento Kings. As of now, they have a few players that are questionable for the contest.

On Sunday, the Los Angeles Lakers will be heading back to Las Vegas for their fourth preseason game against the Sacramento Kings. In what will surely be an emotional night for many that are still healing from the recent horrific events, hopefully, some good basketball will help the city continue the healing process.

So far, the preseason has not gone too well for the Lakers. Through three games, the Lakers are 0-3, as their defense continues to be a problem. However, they have also been without some key players in games, which has certainly contributed to the losses.

Against the Kings, the Lakers will have Brook Lopez in the lineup for the first time as a Laker. However, they might be without Lonzo Ball and Andrew Bogut once again.

Ball rolled his ankle in the Lakers’ second preseason game. Even though he did return against the Denver Nuggets in the second half of that game, he didn’t play against them a few nights later. Luckily, the rolled ankle for Ball isn’t expected to be anything serious.

In addition to Ball being questionable, Bogut is as well. Like Lopez, Bogut has yet to play in the preseason for the Lakers. He is dealing with a groin issue that could keep him out.

With the preseason quickly coming to a close, it would be nice to see the Lakers get their full team on the court together. There are a lot of new players that have never played with each other, and you can only gain so much chemistry from practice.

However, since it is only the preseason, the Lakers will likely be extremely careful with Ball and Bogut. Unless they are close to 100 percent, the Lakers will likely hold them out.
