Miami - Butler and Herro missed the same amount of time as usual for them, Oladipo hasn't been healthy in years, Dragic played about as much as you'd expect from him, likewise with Bam. They don't seem to have really been impacted by injuries any more than usual.

Lakers - Lebron played a little less than his usual self since joining the Lakers; not really too shocking considering his age and he hasn't exactly been a stranger to injuries since joining the Lakers. Davis missed more time than usual and he's obviously a huge part of the team. The rest basically played their usual amount of games/didn't miss significant time.

Boston - Brown played the same number of games as he did the prior year; obviously unfortunate timing for his injury though. Kemba hasn't really been healthy since day 1 with the Celtics. They did have some bad luck with other guys though.

Denver - Murray's injury was obviously a big deal. Monte Morris struggled with injuries for the first time. That was basically the only two though. Barton missed his usual amounts of time. And Jokic literally played every single game despite often being criticized of not being fit and also pushing through a deep playoff run last year. Porter looked healthier than ever.

I understand the logic that the shortened offseason could potentially lead to more injuries and stuff, but it doesn't really seem like these teams suffered much more than you'd generally expect an average team to.
