LeBron James Listed As Questionable For Friday
4 months agoLos Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks due to left foot soreness. James is at risk of missing his first game of the season if he is eventually ruled out. If that happens, Cam Reddish could see increased playing time. James has been putting up impressive numbers this season, averaging 22.3 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 9.0 assists. However, with a recent shooting slump, some may argue that a rest could be beneficial for his long-term performance. Fantasy managers will want to check back Friday for his status before tip-off.

LeBron James Probable Thursday
3 days agoLos Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) is considered probable for Thursday's game against the Golden State Warriors. James is set for another head-to-head battle against Stephen Curry despite being on the injury report with a left groin strain, which sidelined the Lakers superstar for seven games last month. Since returning, James has struggled with his shooting, going 43.4 percent from the field to average 18.7 points per game. He will attempt to regain form against a team that has struggled to contain him this season. Over three meetings with the Warriors, James has posted 32.7 points, 8.7 rebounds, and 10.0 assists with 57.1 percent three-point shooting.

LeBron James Ready To Play Against Rockets
6 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.
