On November 6, the NBA regular season is in full swing, and there were four major developments outside the court in the past night. Among them, Jazz insider Kessler was retired for the season due to a torn labrum in his left shoulder. James' injury was updated and he will not go on the next five consecutive road trips with the Lakers, which means he will continue to miss the game. The Clippers have been hit hard, and Harden will miss the game due to personal reasons. The Warriors are also suffering from injuries, and Curry, Butler and Dream Chaser are all absent from back-to-back games against the Kings.

According to the famous reporter Shams, Jazz center Kessler underwent surgery due to a torn labrum in his left shoulder and was scheduled to be reimbursed for the season ahead of schedule. This news is somewhat unexpected, and it also hits Kessler hard. He failed to reach an early contract extension with the Jazz this summer, and he wants to perform well in the new season so that he can get a good contract extension next summer. In 5 games played this season, Kessler averaged 14.4 points, 10.8 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal per game. He is still in good condition, but now he can only rest and recuperate.

After the Lakers beat the Spurs, they will usher in a wave of five consecutive away trips, facing the Hawks, Hornets, Thunder, Pelicans, and Bucks respectively. James' injury has also received an update. He will not travel with the team during this away trip and will continue to recover in Los Angeles. Because of sciatica, James has not played a game this season. He is currently undergoing personal training. He will then conduct 5V5 full-court training, and then he can usher in his comeback.

The Clippers have updated their injury status for the next game against the Suns. Leonard will continue to be absent, but it is no longer an injury management issue, but an ankle injury. The sprained foot occurred in the final stage of the game against the Heat. The specific injury has not been updated. Harden will also be absent for the first time in the season, not due to injury, but for personal reasons. All of a sudden, the two core players are not playing, which means that they may suffer a three-game losing streak. The Clippers' performance at the beginning of the season was very poor, with a record of only 3 wins and 4 losses, and they failed to perform as they should.

The Warriors' schedule at the beginning of the season is definitely the most difficult. The continuous back-to-back games also make the veterans a little overwhelmed. Facing the Kings back-to-back this time, they also gave up "tactically". Curry, Butler and Dream Chasing all stopped, giving young players ample opportunities. It has to be said that the Warriors are still very protective of their players, and their current results are pretty good. There is no need to take risks. Health is the first priority.
