Chris Kaman expresses frustration

Los Angeles Lakers veteran centre Chris Kaman has admitted that he is frustrated with his situation at the franchise.

The 31-year-old arrived in Los Angeles as a free agent in the summer after seeing an opportunity to play significant minutes and re-establish himself in the league.

"It's absolutely not what I was looking for," he told ESPN.

"It's not really in my control. I just try to keep working hard and be ready if the time comes. And if it doesn't, then it just wasn't meant to be."

Kaman is averaging 8.3 points and 5.1 rebounds in nearly 17 minutes per game so far this season.
