Lakers Injury Report: Game Status Confirmed For LeBron James's Return To Cleveland
After being listed as questionable entering the game, Lakers star LeBron James will officially be playing today against the Cleveland Cavaliers. James returns to the city of Cleveland, in what is always a special game for The King.
James has played 10 games in Cleveland as a member of the visiting team, and he has excelled in the matchups. His teams are 8-2 overall, and he has averaged 32.6 points, 9.5 rebounds, and 7.6 assists on 56.2 percent shooting.
The Lakers will need another masterful game from James if they want to take down the Cavaliers today with all their injuries. James has been relied upon heavily to start the game once again, but he has shown that he is still capable of putting the team on his back.
On the year, James is averaging 25.7 points, 8.1 rebounds and 6.7 assists. Despite being in year 21, he doesn't look like he is slowing down, which is a great sign for the Lakers.
Alongside him will be star Anthony Davis, who needs to bounce back in a big way from his last outing. Davis scored just 10 points in a loss to the Dallas Mavericks earlier in the week, and he knows that he is better than that.
Watch for Davis and James to carry the load for this team tonight, and hopefully, they can help LA get the win. This is the first game of a multi-game road trip for the Lakers, and they would love nothing more than to get it started off right.
