Los Angeles Lakers guard Kendrick Nunn has a knee injury and will be evaluated in 2-to-3 weeks, head coach Frank Vogel said after Thursday’s practice.
Nunn, who was originally nursing an ankle injury, had imaging done when he felt soreness. The imaging revealed a bone bruise on his right knee.
Nunn is the latest Laker to be out multiple weeks with an injury. Trevor Ariza and Talen Horton-Tucker are each out, and Wayne Ellington will miss Friday’s game against the Phoenix Suns.
The Lakers signed Nunn to a two-year deal worth the full taxpayer MLE of over $10 million, so he marked L.A.’s most expensive signing of the summer.
