After initially testing positive for the novel coronavirus earlier this week, James has been cleared to return to the lineup after missing Tuesday’s game against the Sacramento Kings.
The new face in the starting lineup is veteran center Howard, who had previously come off the bench. He played the majority of Tuesday’s game and had his best outing of the young season.
Thanks to Howard’s defense, rebounding and physicality, L.A. overcame a halftime deficit and pulverized the Kings in the second half en route to a blowout victory.
With a 12-11 record, the Lakers need to string together wins to alleviate the anxiety and concern that has surrounded the team since the start of the season.
