LeBron James’ injury status for the upcoming game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Golden State Warriors hasn’t been downgraded, despite earlier concerns about his left ankle tendinopathy. Recently, James was selected to start in the 2025 NBA All-Star Game, marking his 21st consecutive appearance. Reports about his injury from earlier in the season suggested he was questionable due to the ankle issue, but he has since returned to play at a high level. As of now, there are no fresh injury reports, so it’s expected that James will be available to play in the Warriors game.
In a recent update, James explained why he had stepped away from the Lakers during a rough patch in their season.
