Lakers lose Kuzma indefinitely due to foot injury |
Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma is out indefinitely with a stress reaction in his foot, an injury he suffered while he was working with Team USA this summer, the Lakers announced.
Kuzma has not been cleared for full practice or game participation and will miss at least the first three weeks of training camp, the team said. Kuzma averaged 18.7 points and 5.5 rebounds per game for the Lakers last season.
Camp opens Saturday for the Lakers, who are traveling to China in October to take part in two preseason games with the Brooklyn Nets as part of the league's international preseason games. They will play on Oct. 10 in Shanghai and Oct. 12 in Shenzhen.

Kuzma will travel with the team to China and is scheduled for an MRI when the team returns. A status update will be given at that time.
The Lakers also announced that rookie guard Talen Horton-Tucker continues to receive treatment for a stress reaction in his right foot and will have limited participation in training camp.
Rookie forward Jordan Caroline underwent successful surgery on his fifth metatarsal on Sept. 6, the Lakers said. He is expected to miss 10 to 12 weeks.
