Head coach JJ Redick announced that Christian Wood has a setback in his rehab process and will be out at least four more weeks, exacerbating the Lakers' frontcourt issues.
The Lakers face a significant challenge with only two healthy bigs on the roster, as Wood's injury leaves them vulnerable and in urgent need of a solution.
With each passing week of Wood's absence, the NBA trade deadline on December 15 looms larger, suggesting the Lakers may need to explore trading options for frontcourt depth.
Wood's absence from NBA action could exceed 10 months, and the Lakers are left to ponder whether he may have already played his final game for the team.
