Nick Young sits out practice, is day-to-day with a knee injury

Nick Young sat out Thursday’s practice with a sore knee the small forward hit in on the floor after he slipped coming off a screen during the second quarter of Wednesday’s loss to the Clippers.

After visiting a doctor who took X-rays on Thursday, Young called himself day-to-day. He said he expects to play Friday when the Lakers host Orlando, but coach Byron Scott expressed concern about Young’s mobility.

“We’ll see how he feels tomorrow,” Scott said. “I don’t know how effective he’ll be. Hopefully the swelling goes down a bit tonight and tomorrow he’s a little bit more mobile.”

Young is listed as questionable for Friday’s game as is Wesley Johnson, who has missed the last two games with a strained right hip flexor. Kobe Bryant also sat out of Thursday’s practice.
