So much for a whole summer and four full days of training camp feeling fully healthy.

Lakers guard Steve Nash experienced his first injury of the 2014-15 season during Saturday’s practice where he rolled his left ankle.

Lakers trainer Gary Vitti told NBA TV that Nash stepped on the foot of an unnamed rookie (either Julius Randle or Jordan Clarkson) during a running drill.

“Steve doesn’t do anything routine in terms of injuries,” Vitti said. “It’s always fluky kind of stuff.”

This is notable since Nash only played 15 games last season amid nerve issues in his back and hamstrings. But for now, the Lakers said Nash just sat out the rest of Saturday’s practice for precautionary reasons.
