In the LOS ANGELES DAILY NEWS, Elliott Teaford writes "Luke Walton tested his sprained right ankle during the Lakers' shootaround Sunday morning and could jump, but not very high. He could run, but not very fast. He could cut, but not very well. So, he and the Lakers' athletic training staff decided it was best that he not play Sunday night against the Golden State Warriors. ‘It's not a terrible one,' he said of his sprain. ‘But playing basketball, you've got to be able to cut and run and jump. I tried to do it in the shootaround and couldn't do any of it."
