Keldon Johnson, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander to miss start of training camp

A brand-new NBA season is right around the corner, and with training camp just a few days away, the excitement for a new year is building. Preseason power rankings are starting to come out, and the crisp fall air has arrived.

However, not all is right in the world. So far, two former Kentucky Wildcats have gone down with injuries that will keep them out at least some of the training camp.

Keldon Johnson, who was given a massive extension this offseason, averaged a career-high 17 points per game last season. He’s expected to have a big-time season as the main weapon for the San Antonio Spurs, but he’ll be sidelined for a bit due to injury.
