6 years agoLos Angeles Lakers power forward Kyle Kuzma will not be able to suit up for Friday’s contest versus the New York Knicks due to a bruised back. Kuzma picked up the injury Wednesday, and his absence leaves an even larger void with LeBron James joining him on the sidelines. It’s tough to see one specific player absorbing Kuzma’s minutes and shots, but rather a collaboration of Lakers players seeing a collective bump. Kuzma’s next chance to take the floor comes Sunday against the Minnesota Timberwolves.--Jesse Borek
