There is nothing to worry about with Walker Kessler amid the ongoing absence of the new Los Angeles Lakers big man.

JJ Redick set the record straight about Kessler's finger issues before the Lakers' Thursday preseason game against the Sacramento Kings.

The Lakers coach assured that Kessler will make an appearance in the team's remaining exhibition games ahead of the upcoming regular season.

"We got to check in tomorrow, but I think it's not concerning," Redick told reporters in pregame.

"He'll play in the preseason."
