When Will Isaiah Thomas Be Back? LA Lakers Point Guard Excused With Hip Problem

Isaiah Thomas has traveled across the country to have his hip assessed after pain in the long-standing trouble spot failed to subside and kept him out of the Lakers' last two games. Thomas, who traded from the Cleveland Cavaliers to the LA Lakers in February, was ruled out of their games on Saturday (March 24) and Monday due to the continuous hip issue. The 29-year-old point guard was traded to the Cavaliers in the summer as part of a deal that saw Kyrie Irving joining the Celtics, where Thomas had shot to fame.
