Los Angeles Clippers continue to face setbacks.
The team’s forward, Brandon Ingram, will miss the start of the season due to a partial Achilles tendon tear. The club announced that the player is still recovering from an injury discovered after summer surgery on his heel. The exact timeline for his return remains uncertain.
Ingram joined the Clippers this summer following a trade that sent Kawhi Leonard back to Toronto.
Last season, the 29-year-old forward appeared in 77 games—the highest total of his NBA career. He averaged 21.5 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per game.
Thanks to his strong performance, Brandon Ingram earned an invitation to the All-Star Game.
