According to the injury report, the Los Angeles Lakers’ star forward, LeBron James, is listed as questionable with left ankle peroneal tendinopathy for their upcoming game against the Memphis Grizzlies.
Although James has appeared on the injury report multiple times recently, he has typically been able to play.
The Lakers’ final two regular season games are crucial as they currently hold the 10th seed but have the same record as the eighth seed Sacramento Kings and ninth seed Golden State Warriors.
To secure a higher position in the standings, the Lakers must finish with a better record than those two teams, as they do not have the tiebreaker.
Fortunately for the Lakers, the Grizzlies will be shorthanded for the game, lacking most of their top rotation players.
With everything at stake for Los Angeles Lakers and facing an understaffed opponent, they are expected to find a way to secure a victory.
However, the status of James is still worth monitoring, although he has played in previous games even when initially listed as questionable.
