Five Observations from the LAL vs. GSW game

4 of 7

3. Jordan Clarkson is out with an injury.

It is somewhat fortunate for the Lakers that the recent injuries to the team are relatively minor.  Clarkson left the game with a left calf strain.

The major injury occurred to Nick Young, who is on an 8-week timetable for his return. Xavier Henry, Wesley Johnson, Ryan Kelly, and Jordan Clarkson are along the lines of day-to-day status.  Henry is expected to return the practice soon. Ryan Kelly is still recovering from a modern hamstring injury.  Wesley Johnson’s knee injury from the first preseason game doesn’t seem to be affecting him.
