In the third quarter of the Los Angles Lakers’ Christmas Day matchup against the Warriors, superstar LeBron James suffered what appeared to be an injury to his groin.

James has never had a significant injury throughout his career, but as he nears the age of 34, it’s a bit worrisome, especially considering James asked to come out immediately. Upon further video review, James could be seen telling the training staff that he heard a “pop.”
The three-time NBA champion left the game with 17 points, 13 rebounds, and five assists.
