Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's matchup against the Denver Nuggets. James has been on the injury report several times this season with left ankle peroneal tendinopathy. However, he has been available in the last three Lakers games. Should the 39-year-old be unable to go, Taurean Prince and Rui Hachimura could pick up some minutes. Cam Reddish (ankle) could also be used, as he is listed as probable.
Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (Achilles) is available ahead of Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. As expected, Davis is active after being listed as probable ahead of this game. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, which led some to think that Davis might sit out for rest purposes. However, Davis is active and expected to fulfill his normal role in the rotation. Fantasy managers should double check their lineups to make sure Davis isn't on the bench.
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is active ahead of Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. The superstar forward was tagged as questionable heading into this game. There was some concern that James would sit this game out with the Lakers having such a favorable matchup already against the struggling Wizards. Despite that, James is active and expected to have his normal workload. Fantasy managers can feel safe plugging James back into their lineups on Thursday.
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is expected to suit up for Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. The superstar forward is carrying a questionable tag into this contest. James has been nursing an ankle issue for weeks now. The Wizards are one of the worst teams in the league. That being said, the Lakers don't exactly need James in order to have a good chance at winning this game. Taurean Prince would move into the starting five and have some deep league appeal if James is forced to sit out. Fantasy managers should check back for another update ahead of game-time.
Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Cam Reddish (ankle) has been listed as probable for Thursday's game against Washington. He's only just returned from a 14-game absence, but it looks like Reddish has recovered well enough to be available for the second leg of a back-to-back. He put in a 20-minute shift in his comeback game against the Clippers on Wednesday, scoring five points and grabbing three rebounds. Reddish might have a bigger role to play on Thursday if LeBron James (ankle) is absent.
