Talen Horton-Tucker To Miss At Least Four Weeks
3 years agoLos Angeles Lakers guard/forward Talen Horton-Tucker (thumb) is expected to be sidelined at least four weeks following surgery to repair a torn ligament in his right thumb. THT suffered the injury during a preseason game. He has a chance to be one of the first players off the bench for the Lakers this year once he recovers. While he's out, Malik Monk and Kendrick Nunn could see increased playing time behind the team's projected starters Wayne Ellington and Kent Bazemore. Last year, THT played about 20 minutes per game and averaged 9.0 points, 2.6 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game while shooting 45.8% from the field.
