The good news regarding Andrew Bynum and his injured left Achilles tendon, is that the results were unchanged and it is not torn. The bad news, is that there is no timetable for his return to the active roster for the struggling Lakers.
Bynum will continue to receive therapy from the team’s athletic training staff.
He was injured while running back on defense in the third quarter of the Lakers’ victory March 19 over the Minnesota Timberwolves. He sat out for the eighth consecutive game Sunday, when the Lakers lost to the San Antonio Spurs 100-81.
The Lakers are 4-4 without Bynum in their lineup which includes losses to Orlando, Oklahoma City New Orleans and San Antonio.
