The
Los Angeles Lakers have faced a series of setbacks with several key players and we show you in this article the updated
injury report.. Guard
Gabe Vincent is currently out with a knee injury, coach Darvin Ham confirmed Tuesday. He has yet to return to on-court activities, suggesting that his recovery could take some time. He would be very important to provide some ball-handling in the second unit and outside shooting, as he proved last season with the Miami Heat.
Jarred Vanderbilt, another key player on the team, is also out due to a foot injury. According to Darvin Ham himself, Vanderbilt has not yet progressed enough to participate in on-court activities. This situation presents an additional challenge for the team as it tries to overcome the absence of one of its standout players, primarily on the defensive end.
Christian Wood, a versatile player on the interior, is also out due to a left knee injury. Wood has been diagnosed with a knee effusion and will be re-evaluated in a few days. The Angels need him to unload minutes for Anthony Davis, a player who as we all know has a tendency to get injured, although this season they are respecting him.
Finally, Colin Castleton, one of the team's centers, is also currently unavailable. Castleton is expected to miss several weeks after suffering a fractured right wrist recently. This situation leaves the Los Angeles team with a sizable injury list, presenting an additional challenge on the road to recovery and success in the season.
