LeBron James Ruled Out Against Warriors On Thursday Due To Injury

LeBron James won’t join the Los Angeles Lakers in their efforts to defeat the Golden State Warriors. The king of basketball will sit out Thursday’s game due to a sore left groin as suggested by the injury report released by the team.

This will be the third game LeBron has missed in the regular season. Last season, LeBron missed 17 straight games due a groin injury. Well, it’s sort of awkward because LeBron suffered his terrible injury in the game against the Warriors. Of course, this injury isn’t as severe as the injury he sustained last season. It won’t keep him sidelined for a long time. The Los Angeles Lakers are 32 games above .500 as opposed to just six games in 2018-19.

LeBron James and Anthony Davis have to avoid suffering another injury

Anthony Davis is here now, and the Lakers have nothing to worry about at the moment. Let’s not forget that the Warriors are the worst team this season. LA players won’t need LeBron’s help to win this game.

The Lakers listed Davis as probably due to his sore left elbow. The superstar hit his elbow on the backboard during his attempt to go for a block against Pelicans forward Nicolo Melli on Tuesday. His awesome athleticism is sort of responsible for this injury.

LeBron will stay on the sidelines, and Rajon Rondo will probably start alongside Avery Bradley in the backcourt. Danny Green will slide over to the 3. Bradley and Rondo haven’t really been effective this season. They are able to post -1.6 net rating in 166 minutes together. However, Rondo has the ability to fill the playmaking void LeBron left behind.

How will Lakers head coach Frank Vogel use Kyle Kuzma? Markieff Morris is right behind Davis. Kuzma has started just six contests this season.

The Lakers look really well at this point of the season with a 44-12 record. They have a really good chance to make the Finals this season. Hopefully, LeBron and Davis will stay healthy by the end of the season. Morris was the perfect addition to the team despite the fact that they didn’t need a change. It’s a big season for LA.
