Of course, Thursday’s match will be a battle of the league’s titans.
Last season, the Lakers were the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference while the Bucks were the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference.
James, 36, was the runner-up for the 2020 MVP award, which went to Bucks international standout Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Although James didn’t get the prestigious individual accolade, he earned a championship in the NBA bubble in Orlando, Fla. The Bucks, on the other hand, fizzled out in the second round of the 2020 playoffs.
Of course, the Lakers would love for a healthy James to play on Thursday night.
Lakers All-Star Anthony Davis, who is dealing with a right ankle sprain, is probable to play on Thursday in addition to veterans Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Wesley Matthews.
