Lakers Injury News: Lance Stephenson Suffers Sprained Toe In 4th Quarter Of Win Vs. Pelicans

As the Los Angeles Lakers continue to try and push towards the playoffs, the team is going to need contributions from everyone on the roster. One player who could become very important for them down the stretch is veteran Lance Stephenson.

However, his availability in the near future may be in question. Stephenson went down in pain early in the fourth quarter, requiring the Lakers to commit an intentional foul and call a timeout.

He sat on the floor stretching for a few seconds, then rose to his feet and limped off the court. Stephenson was taken to the locker room and diagnosed with a sprain of the second toe in his left foot.
