Bill Oram: Luke Walton says Lakers are still awaiting MRI results on Brandon Ingram, so no real update at this point. Isaac Bonga is with the Lakers, but is essentially “an insurance policy,” Walton says.
With the Lakers point guard situation in shambles due to injuries to Rajon Rondo and Brandon Ingram, they’re calling in some reinforcements. The Lakers announced on Thursday morning that they’ve recalled second round pick Isaac Bonga from the South Bay Lakers to the parent club. The 6-10 Bonga has been playing well in the G League as a point forward.
Mike Bresnahan: Lakers assign Isaac Bonga to the South Bay Lakers, their G-League affiliate.
“The turnout was great,” James said of the sellout crowd of 18,997. “And the atmosphere was amazing. Definitely appreciated by all of us in here that they came out to a preseason game like this. And we just tried to give them a good show, which we did, all the way down to the last possession.” The Lakers lost their second straight game to the Nuggets, 113-111, but they had a chance to win at the end, until rookie Isaac Bonga passed up on an open shot, miscalculating how much time was left on the clock.
