LeBron James' Injury Status For Pistons-Lakers Game

The Los Angeles Lakers are hosting the Detroit Pistons in California on Friday evening.
They have not played since Sunday against the Brooklyn Nets, so they go into Friday with a full four days off from games.
LeBron James has missed each of the last two games, and he is questionable for Friday's matchup with the Pistons.
Via Mark Medina of NBA.com: "Lakers coach Darvin Ham said LeBron James is listed as questionable for tomorrow’s game vs the Pistons. Ham liked how LeBron looked and moved, but todays practice only consisted of non-contact drills."

On the season, the four-time NBA Champion is averaging 24.9 points, 8.8 rebounds and 6.9 assists per contest.
However, the Lakers have been one of the worst teams in the league to start the year.
They are 3-10 in their first 13 games, which has them as the 14th seed in the Western Conference.
The only team in the west that they have a better record than is the Houston Rockets, who were the worst team in the NBA last season and are in rebuilding mode.
Through the first month of the season, the Lakers have already had two different five-game losing streaks.
In their last game, they beat the Nets 116-103 to snap the losing streak, and Anthony Davis led the way with 37 points and 18 rebounds.
James is in his 20th season in the NBA and fifth with the Lakers.
They won the NBA Championship in 2020 but have missed the postseason in two of the four seasons that he has been with the franchise.
