According to a report, the Los Angeles Lakers are losing Talen Horton-Tucker to health and safety protocols.

It’s a tough blow for a Lakers squad that has been ravaged by health issues at various points this season.

COVID-19 continues to cause issues throughout pro sports. The Lakers are unfortunately getting a firsthand experience of what it’s like.

The squad will have to find a way forward without Horton-Tucker until he’s cleared to return. L.A. is trying to finally establish itself as a title contender this season.

The Lakers’ next game will come on Wednesday against the Dallas Mavericks. L.A. is looking for its third straight win.
