Another Questionable Tag For LeBron James
8 months agoLos Angeles Lakers guard/forward LeBron James (calf) is considered questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Sacramento Kings. James is a candidate to find his name on the injury report on the majority of L.A.'s back-to-back sets in 2023-24, after playing through a left calf contusion in Tuesday's 134-107 home rout of the Memphis Grizzlies. Always a stronger bet in 8-category/punt-turnover fantasy builds, the 38-year-old perennial All-Star is averaging 24.3 points, 8.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1.9 triples, and 1.3 steals in Tinseltown this year. Tuesday's blowout helped keep James' playing time down to 22 minutes, so perhaps he has a better chance of giving it a go on Wednesday than he otherwise would have. If not, the Lakers next take a brief one-game road trip to Portland to face the Trail Blazers for In-Season Tournament action on Friday. Rui Hachimura would likely draw the start if James is out Wednesday.
