Clippers’ Max Strus Is Sidelined for at Least a Month with a Right Foot Injury
The injury will keep Strus out for at least four weeks and cost the Clippers another opening-night starter as injuries mount in preseason.
- On Sunday, Los Angeles Clippers guard Max Strus sustained a partial tear of his right plantar fascia during a 104-101 preseason victory over the Golden State Warriors in Honolulu, Hawaii.
- The noncontact injury occurred five minutes into the game, and tests in Los Angeles confirmed the partial tear after Strus caught a pass while cutting across the lane.
- ESPN NBA insider Shams Charania reported Strus will be reevaluated in four weeks, marking the third consecutive season the veteran will miss the regular season start due to foot issues.
- Los Angeles faces significant roster challenges, with two-time All-Star Brandon Ingram sidelined by Achilles issues and veterans Bradley Beal, Kobe Sanders, Jordan Miller, and Yanic Konan Niederhauser also currently dealing with injuries.
- The Clippers open the regular season October 21 against the Sacramento Kings, and following the four-week reevaluation timeline, Strus will remain unavailable for the team's first seven contests.
