Lakers Assign Rookie Guard Cameron Carr to G League's Coachella Valley

The Los Angeles Lakers assigned rookie wing Cameron Carr to their G League affiliate, the Coachella Valley Lakers, ahead of Friday's season opener against the Salt Lake City Stars. The No. 24 overall pick in June's draft has seen limited action after missing the team's first six games with a strained right oblique, logging just four total minutes on the floor. Carr, who averaged a team-high 18.9 points and 5.8 rebounds during his final college season at Baylor, heads to the G League to increase his playing time.
