LeBron James Looks Pretty Healthy In First Game Back From Injury

Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James missed too many games due to his ankle injury. He was out from March 20 and was only able to return for a couple of games. The four-time NBA champion had to spend more time on the bench and he didn’t even attend games. LeBron rested his ankle and it looks like he is ready to return to game action.

Yes, LeBron is officially back. He missed six games to recover from his ankle sprain. He returned to the floor for the game against the Indiana Pacers. Saturday was a big day for the kid from Akron.

The Lakers are really cautious with LeBron ever since he suffered an injury. King James returned to the hardwood a couple of weeks ago but had to sit out once again. He really wanted to be 100%.

LeBron was filled with doubt and he didn’t really believe that he’d return to full strength. He looked great against the Pacers.

LeBron James recovered from his injury

In the first quarter of the game, LeBron got a lob pass from Dennis Schroder while in transition. He had to deal with many health issues, but his left foot helped him jump to the rim. We had fun watching the king do this dunk. Fans at Bankers Life Fieldhouse were surprised.

In other words, LeBron has warned the rest of the NBA. If he remains healthy, LA has a chance to make the NBA Finals once again. The team is trying really hard to defend the title, and LeBron is here to motivate players. Lakers players won a title inside the NBA bubble. They won a championship in the middle of a pandemic. Why wouldn’t they win another one?

The Lakers are the seventh seed in the West. They still have a chance to leapfrog the Portland Trail Blazers and avoid the play-in round contention. LeBron doesn’t like the tournament so he would do whatever it takes to avoid it. Let’s see what happens next in the regular season. LA has one game left.
