LeBron James Likely To Play Versus Washington
1 year agoLos Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) will likely play on Wednesday versus Washington. The veteran star, who continues to carry an ankle injury, skipped one game in a back-to-back situation a week ago, but Lakers head coach Darvin Ham expects to see him back on the court Wednesday night after James logged 29 minutes in Tuesday's 128-111 win over Toronto. James opened the final month of the regular season with a 23-point outing, shooting a very impressive 10-for-12 from the field. He also had a game-high nine assists. Washington owns the third-worst defensive rating in the league, meaning James should fill up the stat sheet with ease on Wednesday.

LeBron James Ready To Play Against Rockets
3 days agoLos Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) will play in Monday's matchup against the Houston Rockets. He has been upgraded from probable to available. This will be James' sixth consecutive appearance since returning from a groin strain. The four-time NBA champion has not reached his usual high standards since coming back, averaging 19.2 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 7.6 assists. James' scoring has been hampered by his poor 43.7 percent shooting efficiency. On Monday, James will face the league's fourth-most efficient defense, which may again hinder his offensive impact.

On the other hand, DFS managers may want to consider other options, considering his rostering cost.
