Cameron Carr Sidelined With Oblique Strain Amid Lakers Rookie Prank

The 24th overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, Cameron Carr has yet to make his NBA debut due to a right oblique strain, missing the Lakers' first two games. While recovering, Carr was welcomed to the team with a rookie prank when teammates filled his car with popcorn. He might return for Sunday's matchup against the Jazz. The Lakers are off to a 2-0 start in the post-LeBron James era under Luka Doncic as they navigate a competitive Western Conference.
