Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) has been downgraded from doubtful to out for Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Dealing with peroneal tendinopathy in his left ankle virtually all season long, James will sit on the front end of LA's back-to-back and hope to play in Wednesday's meeting with the Memphis Grizzlies for the second outing of a six-game road trip. Cam Reddish and Taurean Prince are candidates to join the Lakers' starting lineup at small forward on Tuesday, with Anthony Davis (Achilles), D'Angelo Russell, and Austin Reaves running the show offensively. Over nine games without James this season, Reaves is averaging 19.1 points, 5.0 assists, 3.9 rebounds, 1.0 steals, and 2.5 three-pointers and gets a favorable matchup against a Bucks team allowing the eighth-most DraftKings points to opposing shooting guards.
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is doubtful for Tuesday's game in Milwaukee. The Lakers will begin their six-game road trip. However, the club is expected to be without the multi-time MVP. The ankle injury has bothered him all year, so he could be getting a night off ahead of Wednesday's matchup with the Memphis Grizzlies. Anthony Davis (Achilles), who is probable, should pick up most of the slack on the offensive end if James is officially sidelined on Tuesday. But D'Angelo Russell and Austin Reaves will also warrant extra attention from DFS participants.
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) has officially been upgraded from questionable to active on Monday night and will suit up against the Indiana Pacers. The King will make his sixth consecutive start despite the ankle issue he continues to deal with each night. After D'Angelo Russell got the late scratch from the lineup, James' playmaking and ball-handling will be even more important. This should turn into another big night for James and Anthony Davis as they try to remain in the playoff race and avoid the play-in tournament. James is a must-start candidate in all fantasy formats.
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The superstar forward has been dealing with an ankle issue for what seems like months now. However, James normally plays through the issue, but fantasy managers should check back for another update ahead of tip-off. His absence would likely result in more playing time for Spencer Dinwiddie and Taurean Prince. Between the two, Dinwiddie is the better streaming option if James sits out.
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) picked up another questionable tag on Friday and his status will be updated closer to tip-off against the Philadelphia 76ers. The King has been on the injury report more often than not, especially with the ankle issues that he's been dealing with for a while now. If he's able to play, a big night should be in store against the short-handed Sixers who could also be without Tobias Harris (ankle). If James has to watch from the sidelines, however, Rui Hachimura would be the best streaming option even though Spencer Dinwiddie and Taurean Prince would see some added opportunities as well.
