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 forward LeBron James (ankle) has been listed as questionable for Thursday's clash with the Wizards. James put in a vintage performance on Wednesday against the Clippers but could sit out the second leg of a back-to-back to rest his ailing left ankle. The veteran superstar has skipped one game in each of the last two back-to-back situations. Taurean Prince would have a chance to move back into the starting five if James is out on Thursday. He's totaled 9.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 1.7 assists in a starting role this season.
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James outscored the Clippers on his own in the fourth quarter to lift the team to a 116-112 victory in the Battle of Los Angeles on Wednesday night. With James leading the charge, the Lakers pulled off a 21-point comeback in the fourth. It marks the largest fourth-quarter comeback in James' career. He masterminded the late push with a 19-point effort in the quarter, while the Clippers were limited to only 16 points across the final 12 minutes of action. James had a game-high 34 points in total with a spectacular 7-for-12 effort from deep. He shot 13-for-21 overall and completed his line with six rebounds, eight assists, and two blocks. James has been a man on a mission since returning from the All-Star break, averaging 30.7 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 9.7 assists in three games with 57 percent shooting from behind the arc.
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) was originally listed as questionable but head coach Darvin Ham said that he will in fact play on Wednesday night. That means the Lakers will at least have their two superstars against the Los Angeles Clippers and they even get Cam Reddish (ankle) back for the first time in a month. The King will remain in his usual starting role and should remain in any fantasy starting lineup as well. He's played in the team's last two games while delivering a double-double last time around and a 30-point game the time before that. Fantasy managers can expect a higher-scoring affair for the battle of Los Angeles.
