Lakers get good news on NanceLOS ANGELES: Larry Nance Jr. and the Los Angeles Lakers received some good news Friday (Saturday in Manila) after an examination revealed that he suffered only a sprained right wrist and not something more serious as the team originally thought. Nance did not play in the team’s final summer league game Friday night against the Utah Jazz. When Nance was injured Thursday night in the Lakers’ 88-80 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers in the summer league in Las Vegas, an early diagnosis suggested it was “probable” he had a broken hand or ligament damage. He put in a strong performance in the summer league. Nance stayed on the court absorbed in pain before he was taken to the locker room.
