The Los Angeles Lakers will send rookie Julius Randle to Indiana on Wednesday to be examined by foot specialist Dr. David Porter, the team announced Tuesday.
The trip is not an emergency development by any means, merely the Lakers covering their bases and getting Randle's right foot -- which he broke at the beginning of his senior season in high school -- looked at by one of the leading foot doctors in the country.
The Lakers do not believe Randle will require any preemptive surgery on his foot. Randle played all 40 games of Kentucky's season last season and only improved as the season wore on, in the opinion of Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak.
"I think he kind of mirrors the season that Kentucky had," Kupchak said during Randle's introductory press conference Monday. "They went through some tough times and really struggled in the middle of the season ... They didn't lose faith in their coach and their teammates. So, to me, that's a credit to the players. It's obviously a credit to, I believe, their best player in Julius and it's a credit to Coach (John) Calipari down there with the job that they did."

I'm looking forward to seeing Randle all over Duncan this season its going to be a thing of beauty. I predict Randle has 1 game where he gets 30-20 against the Spurs.
So he's Dejuan Blair now?
Or, Patty Mills.
tee, hee.
premature ejaculation party in here
Randle will be the biggest bust of this draft and we all know it.
Due diligence. The Lakers medical staff sucks donkey balls.
Are you dyslexic? Does Julius Randle look like a 7 ft center to you?
Julius "Yao Oden" Randle
