Warriors coach Steve Kerr commented on Lee’s injury Thursday, according to ESPN.
"“I just feel bad for David because he’s had a great preseason, and he’s worked so hard,” Kerr said Thursday. “You saw the impact he made on the game immediately, and for this to happen, I feel bad for him. Hopefully we get him back soon and he’ll be back in the mix, and we’ll go from there.”"
Lee missed the Warriors’ first three games because of hamstring issues. He played seven minutes in the team’s fourth contest against the Los Angeles Clippers, but suffered a setback with his hamstring during the game.
Lee scored six points on 3-of-4 shooting with zero rebounds and one turnover before the injury.
Lee, a nine-year veteran, has career averages of 15.2 points and 9.8 rebounds per game. Lee attended the University of Florida and was a first-round draft pick of the New York Knicks in 2005.
