Sound familiar? It’s the same diagnosis Elfrid Payton received earlier this season and has since missed six games. Robbins adds that Payton will miss his seventh consecutive game against the Bulls but participated in the non-contact portion of today’s shootaround and is expected to practice tomorrow, according to Frank Vogel.
