Maxi Kleber returns from injury to debut for the Lakers against the Hawks.

Maxi Kleber, the Los Angeles Lakers center, is set to make his season debut against the Atlanta Hawks, according to reports. Cleared after missing the entire regular season due to foot surgery, Kleber had previously been sidelined by a strained abdominal muscle and other injuries. The 34-year-old German forward, acquired in the Luka Doncic trade, is expected to provide depth off the bench. He averaged 6.4 points and 4.4 rebounds in his career, known for his defense and three-point shooting. Kleber, under an $11 million expiring contract, will become a free agent next summer.
