As the shorthanded Milwaukee Bucks took on the Philadelphia 76ers, things just continued to get worse, as injuries seemed to pile up. During the game, forward Kyle Kuzma abruptly headed for the locker room.
Why Did Kyle Kuzma Leave the Game? What Injury Did He Suffer?
With about 4:40 left in the final quarter, Sixers forward Paul George drove into the lane, with Kuzma trying to defend him, but ended up hobbling out of bounds, standing there while the play continued. Immediately afterward, on Myles Turner’s free throws from the following play, the team called a timeout, during which Kuzma quickly exited the game, heading to the locker room.
So far, not much is known about his status, since he had been healthy to play before the game. The forward has missed just two games this season, and has played in every matchup this month. With Giannis Antetokounmpo already out, the team is likely to monitor Kuzma’s status carefully, and an update should be expected soon.
