Lakers Reveal LeBron James Status For Game 3 vs Blazers

LeBron James helped the Los Angeles Lakers win Game 2 and the team has now released an update on his status in Game 3 against the Blazers.

The Lakers listed LeBron as probably for Saturday’s game. The king of basketball was added to the injury report as a formality. He has been treating a sore groin for quite some time. However, LeBron saw action in each of the past five games. LeBron will probably try to find his shooting stroke in Game 3. He is shooting only 41.9 percent from the field in the series.

LA had an impressive game on Thursday, and LeBron was more than impressed with Anthony Davis’ performance. The Lakers big man led the Lakers’ 111-88 win over Portland with 31 points on 13-of-21 shooting and added 11 rebounds. This was a huge improvement for Davis after he shot just 8-for-24 in LA’s loss in Game 1.

LA has a plan for LeBron James’ status in Game 3 vs Blazers

Lakers head coach Frank Vogel planned to go with the same starting lineup in Game 2. Davis and his teammates made him look good, getting out to a 17-lead by halftime.

LeBron scored just 10 points but added six rebounds and seven assists.

The Lakers have tied their first-round series 1-1, and they will try to take control in Game 3.

The Blazers got some bad news. Portland big man Zach Collins will miss the postseason due to his injury, and the team will have to find a replacement for him. They sure have a backup plan. But, the team also provided some good news. Damian Lillard will suit up for the game despite the minor injury he sustained in the last game.

This will be a rather exciting series. Playoff Blazers have impressed a lot of talking heads in the NBA. The Lakers won’t give up without a good fight. This sums up the further development of the series. Both teams are ready to play their best basketball. LeBron and Davis lead the Lakers and they make the best duo in the NBA. Let’s see what happens next in Orlando.
