An MRI exam of Mitch Richmond's sore right knee showed no structural damage, a relief to the Lakers with training camp less than a week away, according to the Orange County Register.

Richmond, 36, has twice felt discomfort in that knee, which caused him to miss the final 19 games of last season with the Wizards.

Lakers training camp begins in Honolulu on Saturday.
