LOS ANGELES — Derek Fisher has a partial tear of the peroneus longus tendon in his right foot, an injury that normally he would rest for six to eight weeks for healing. But given the proximity to the postseason, Fisher will try to play through the pain.
Fisher played with the injury Wednesday night after feeling a pop in his foot when pushing off. An MRI today revealed the injury, which will mean backup point guard Jordan Farmar’s maturation will be especially necessary with Fisher a growing question mark.
Fisher is being listed as day-to-day by the Lakers, who have endured a myriad of injuries again this season. Fisher and fellow co-captain Kobe Bryant (torn tendon, right hand) are both playing through injuries as the Lakers attempt to make a title run.
So Fisher will probably be on the court with anti-inflammatory medication in his system, trying to defend opposing point guards (a major problem for the Lakers anyway) and searching for a so-important solid base to his 3-point shooting (a challenge if one ankle is feeling wobbly), instead of being in a walking boot to heal his injury. He’ll surely have trouble jumping, too, given that it’s supposedly hard to raise up on your toes with such a tear, which is to one of the tendons running on the outside of the ankle.
Lamar Odom also has an upper respiratory infection and was sent home from the Lakers’ shoot-around this morning, although he is expected to play against Memphis.
