On Tuesday evening, the Los Angeles Lakers will host Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors.

For the game, the Lakers have listed four-time NBA Champion LeBron James as questionable on the injury report.

James missed the team's last game, so this would be his second straight out of the starting lineup (if he doesn't play).

Via Underdog NBA: "LeBron James (illness) questionable for Tuesday."
