The Summer League for the Lakers was going great for the team after two wins and showing some impressive new talents, but yesterday, the Celtics turned around the game and got their first win in the tournament, and LA got their first loss.

But the Lakers have not only lost the game but could also have lost what is arguably the best player of the tournament, the SG Max Christie, who has some impressive numbers so far in the three games played.

According to the Lakers reporter from Spectrum Sportsnet, Mike Truddell, he said "Injury update from Vegas: Max Christie sustained a right hip strain in Wednesday's game and will be listed as "day to day" moving forward."

While Max Christie could be back for the next game, the team could not want to risk him for the Summer League tournament and make him get the worst injury, so Christie needs to have some rest so he can be ready for the next NBA season.

Scotty Pippen Jr. hasn't been able to play a single game in the SL

One player with the worst luck is Scotty Pippen Jr., who not only doesn't have a contract with the team anymore, but an injury has prevented him from playing in the Summer League and showcasing his skills for a team to sign him in the free agency market.
