Frank Vogel: Lakers’ Andre Drummond’s Toe Injury Worsened After Being Stepped On Against Nets

The Los Angeles Lakers didn’t have Andre Drummond available in their loss to the Boston Celtics, but head coach Frank Vogel explained that the center hasn’t been at full health since the win against the Brooklyn Nets.

Drummond first made his debut against the Milwaukee Bucks, but he only played 14 minutes until a toe contusion ruled him out. Drummond explained how Brook Lopez had stepped on his foot that led to the injury with his full toenail coming off.

The 27-year-old center would miss the ensuing three contests, returning against the Miami Heat, where he put up a promising 15 points, 12 rebounds, three assists and two steals.
