The Lakers were hit: Kleber strained his trapezius muscle and missed the opening game. He is expected to re-evaluate in two weeks.

As the NBA opening game is about to start, the Lakers have once again suffered injuries and attrition. Kleber will miss the opening game due to a strained trapezius muscle. He is expected to undergo a review in about two weeks and will miss the early part of the season.

The Lakers are currently experiencing injury troubles. James, one of the core players, will miss the early part of the season due to right sciatica and is expected to return in mid-November. As for rookie Adu Tierro, he continues to be exempt from playing due to his recovery from left knee surgery.

Now Kleber has become another injured player of the Lakers. He only played in the previous preseason game against the Kings, and only played 10 minutes and scored 3 points.

I never thought that Kleber would be evaluated in about two weeks due to a strained trapezius muscle. As a player with an annual salary of 11 million U.S. dollars, Kleber did not play a game in the regular season due to injuries after being traded to the Lakers in the middle of last season. He only scored 2 points in 5 minutes in the playoffs, becoming an out-and-out glass man.

In the past five seasons, Kleber has never played 60 games in a single season, and has never played 45 games in a single season in the past three seasons. He is undoubtedly a "negative asset" to the Lakers.
