Claiber: I ve been 100% healthy now the most important thing is to get back the rhythm of the game

Today's Lakers' New Season Media Day, Kleber accepted an interview with the media.

Reporter: You were injured when you were traded to the Lakers and eventually returned briefly in the last game of the season. How is the recovery progress this offseason? How is your physical condition? What do you expect from the upcoming season?

Claiber: I feel fully recovered and have been 100% healthy. I have focused on completing all rehabilitation training to ensure that my injuries are completely healed. I've been strengthening my physical strength and physical reserves since then, so I'm ready now.

All training at this stage is crucial. I think the most important thing is to return to the court and regain the rhythm of the game, especially the preseason, which can allow me to re-adapt to the tactical system, not just simulated training. Therefore, running in with my teammates and being familiar with the tactical arrangements on the field will be very helpful for me to recover from my state.

Kleber played 34 games last season with the Mavericks, averaging 3 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.3 steals and 0.5 blocks per 18.7 minutes per game, with shooting percentages of 38.5%, 26.5%, and 76.2% respectively in the three events. After joining the Lakers, he played for only 5 minutes in the playoffs against the Timberwolves.
