Shahan Ahmed of NBCLA also reported the news.
Isn’t it crazy that Larry Nance Jr. had a broken hand & just about no one is talking about Julius Randle starting? Wild.

Mike Trudell of Lakers.com spoke to Lakers head coach Luke Walton about the injury.
Walton said he feels really badly for Nance, Jr. and the injury, as he had been “playing so well.” Said it will definitely hurt the team.

Nance Jr. had earned the starting job over Julius Randle this preseason and had been playing well for Los Angeles. With the injury, it will be interesting to see if the club turns to Kyle Kuzma or Randle for the starting job.
