Re: Maxi Kleber: The shoulder sprain diagnosis is a bit ambiguous. We know the injury involves a ligament but multiple joints & articulations make up the shoulder. The fall suggests a possible AC sprain but severity & location will dictate recovery & time lost. – 12:08 PM

Jason Kidd says he doesn’t know how long Maxi Kleber might be out. When I asked about his concern level, Kidd said, “Next man up.” – 1:02 AM

Maxi Kleber is staying in to shoot the free throws, but his right shoulder, side is clearly hurting. He’s flexing it continuously. – 10:30 PM

Maxi Kleber with a hard fall as Amir Coffey collides with him in midair. Looked like Kleber landed on his hip/ribs. He asked to come out quickly with 11:15 to go in the second. – 10:29 PM
Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Amir Coffey turned to avoid a charge, and Maxi Kleber fell awkwardly without being able to brace it.
Jason Kidd very upset at Coffey. Calls timeout with injured Kleber needing time to attempt free throws. – 10:28 PM
