Lakers rookie guard Sun Yue has tested positive for mononucleosis and will miss the start of training camp, according to Los Angeles Times.

He was taken to a hospital a few hours after meeting with the L.A. media for the first time on Wednesday.

There is no date for his return to the team.

"It varies on the severity of it and the individual," Lakers spokesman John Black said Thursday. "We simply don't know."
