The Lakers opened training camp on Tuesday morning with their first full practice, and second year point guard Lonzo Ball watched on the sidelines as he continues his comeback from a July 17 left knee scope.
“Zo didn’t do anything,” said Luke Walton. “They only want him practicing once a day. So because a lot of today’s practice was contact, we chose to have him do the other practice.”
The Lakers practiced from around 10 a.m. until just before noon, and after a break, will resume work in the afternoon. We know that Ball won’t be playing any 5-on-5 just yet, and Walton said they’ll ease him into full contact drills.
