Nick Young out two to four weeks with strained calf

Xinhua, December 1, 2016 Adjust font size:

The Los Angeles Lakers announced on Wednesday that starting guard Nick Young will be sidelined for two to four weeks with a strained right calf muscle.

The 31-year-old Young, who averaged 13.3 points for the Lakers, was hurt in the first quarter Tuesday night in a 105-88 loss at New Orleans.

"He's been playing great, such a huge part of what we've done so far," the Lakers' coach Luke Walton said. "Obviously, it's a big blow to our team and what we're trying to do, but that's part of life in the NBA. So we'll figure it out and keep going forward." Endit
