According to Lakers reporter Mike Trudell, Lakers reserve guard Sasha Vujacic apparently suffered a concussion during practice Thursday, after an inadvertent elbow from Lamar Odom struck him in the head.

No new information is known at this point, but Vujacic will be re-evaluated tomorrow and is considered out indefinitely for the time being. As is the case with any head injury, the Lakers will be closely monitoring Vujacic as the injury heals.

*Update – 10/15/10 – Sasha will miss this weekend’s Staples Center Shootout to rest and recover from the concussion sustained yesterday*
