Jupiterimages/Thinkstock(LOS ANGELES, Ca.) — The Los Angeles Lakers continue to receive bad news in 2014.

Forward Ryan Kelly tore his hamstring in Sunday night’s loss to the Golden State Warriors. Kelly is expected to miss at least six weeks.

The 2014 season has started about as poorly as it could. The team currently sits at the bottom of the Western Conference with a 1-9 record.

The Lakers also lost first round selection Julius Randle for the season on opening night when he broke his right tibia.

Kelly is averaging 3.7 points, 1.7 rebounds, 0.3 assists, and 0.33 steals in 8.2 minutes this season.
