It looks like Walton will be out of the Euro-games. However, this means more time for Barnes who will get his first Lakers action Monday evening!
Yahoo: Team spokesman John Black says that Walton’s right hamstring felt worse during Sunday’s practice session before the Lakers’ preseason opener against the Minnesota Timberwolves in London on Monday. Black says Walton will “definitely not play” against Minnesota or against Barcelona in Spain on Thursday. Walton, limited by a back injury for much of last season, will be evaluated after the team returns to Los Angeles.
“We’ll just have to hold on and see how he goes,” Lakers coach Phil Jackson said.
