On August 16, according to ESPN reporter Warner roversky, Lakers center koshins suffered a serious injury caused by the rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament of his left knee in a game in Las Vegas and may miss the game next season. At present, the date of surgery is uncertain.
Jeff Schwartz, the agent of American outstanding sports, confirmed to ESPN that koshins broke the anterior cruciate ligament of his left knee, which is also the third leg injury suffered by the Lakers center in the past year and a half. Moreover, koshins went to Los Angeles to see a physician, and the diagnosis confirmed the news. The rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament of the knee is a serious injury and requires a long recovery time, which means that koshins may miss the whole 2019-20 season.
The big man who has been selected as an all star for four times is ill fated. He suffered a serious injury of tearing his left Achilles tendon in January 2018 and missed the rest of the 2018-19 season until January 2019. In April this year, he tore his quadriceps again and didn't return until the finals in June. The injury was caused by koshins hitting his knee with another player when playing in Las Vegas and leaving the game immediately.
Koshins just signed a 1-year contract of 3.5 million with the Lakers in July this year. He is expected to become an important part of the team. The injury dealt a great blow to the Lakers. It means that Lakers power forward Davis has to play more time in the center position, and big McGee has to play more time.
Last season, koshins spent most of his time recuperating in the warriors and played only 30 regular season games. Later, he injured his quadriceps in the second game of the first round of the playoffs against the clippers and didn't return until the first game of the finals against the Raptors. In his nine-year career, koshins averaged 21.2 points and 10.9 rebounds. Last season, he averaged 16.3 points and 8.2 rebounds in the warriors.
