James is experiencing soreness in the same ankle that plagued him throughout the 2020-21 campaign. The Lakers are certainly hoping that he’ll be able to overcome the injury.
L.A.’s season is off to a rocky start, and the team would obviously prefer to avoid any additional setbacks.
Over three games this season, James is averaging 26.0 points, 6.3 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game. He’s shooting 46.7 percent from the field and a whopping 48.3 percent from deep.
The Lakers are in Texas on Tuesday to take on the San Antonio Spurs. Time will tell if James is available for the contest.
