    LeBron James Expected To Play On Thursday

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is currently listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. The All-Star forward sat out of Monday's game due to left ankle soreness. However, it sounds like James is feeling good enough to get back on the court after a one-game absence. Max Christie would head back to the bench where he won't have as much streaming appeal. Fantasy managers should check back on Thursday, but it sounds like James should be good to go.

    LeBron James Won't Play Versus Nuggets

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is listed as out for Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The All-Star forward was originally probable before getting a questionable tag earlier in the day. Now, the Lakers have decided to rule out James for this contest. His absence should mean Russell Westbrook sees his usage skyrocket. Also, Dennis Schroder and Thomas Bryant should both see more scoring chances on Monday. The Lakers are extremely shorthanded, so all three of these players should be reliable options for Monday's slate.

    LeBron James Downgraded To Questionable On Monday

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) has been downgraded to questionable for Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The superstar forward was listed as probable, but it appears his ankle is still bothering him. His absence would mean Russell Westbrook moves into the starting five. A move to the starting unit would boost his fantasy value. Also, Dennis Schroder and Thomas Bryant would see more scoring chances if James is unable to play. Fantasy managers will have to check back closer to tip-off for another update on James.

    LeBron James Tagged As Questionable On Saturday

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The superstar forward is dealing with left ankle soreness after playing 33 minutes on Friday. Possibly, the Lakers decide to rest James, but this will likely end up being a game-time decision. His absence would open up more playing time for Russell Westbrook, Dennis Schroder, and Kendrick Nunn. All of these players would be favorable fantasy options if James sits out. The Lakers are extremely shorthanded right now, so losing James would significantly hurt.

    LeBron James Will Miss Wednesday’s Contest

    Los Angeles Lakers power forward LeBron James (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Heat due to a non-COVID illness. James' absence will create a large offensive void for L.A., who remains without Anthony Davis (foot) for the time being. With Lonnie Walker IV (knee) also unavailable, Russell Westbrook, Dennis Schroder and Thomas Bryant stand to see significant DFS upside. James has been on an elite run over the past three weeks, scoring at least 31 points in nine of his last 11 contests. His next chance to return to action comes Friday vs. Atlanta, whom he scorched for a season-high 47 points last Friday.

    LeBron James Will Start Wednesday Despite Questionable Tag

    Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward LeBron James (ankle) will play Wednesday against the Miami Heat. There were some rumblings of James sitting at least one of this back-to-back set, but the veteran star will play against his former team on Wednesday. James has been dealing with lingering ankle soreness, but has not affected his play. With Anthony Davis (foot) out indefinitely, James remains the focal point of the offense and should continue his stellar run.

    LeBron James Considered Questionable Wednesday

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Miami. He's been dealing with a sore left ankle for a while and might take the night off as the team completes a back-to-back set. LeBron led the troops with 28 points in Tuesday's 129-110 victory over the Magic. He also missed the second leg of a back-to-back last week and Dennis Schroder had a big game in his absence with 30 points against Phoenix. Russell Westbrook is also set to get a usage bump if James sits out Wednesday. The former MVP has looked great lately and even posted his third triple-double of the campaign Tuesday.

    LeBron James Probable Against Orlando

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is probable for Tuesday's meeting with Orlando. The King has been in and out of the lineup all season because of left ankle soreness, so his presence on the injury report is nothing new. James logged 34 minutes during the Christmas Day loss to Dallas, finishing with 38 points. Los Angeles will play the first of back-to-back contests on Tuesday as part of a four-game road trip. As a result, James may get a night off at some point moving ahead. At the very least, he could see a reduction in minutes if any of the team's upcoming games get out of hand, something for DFS participants to consider.

    LeBron James Available Against The Kings

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is active for Wednesday's meeting with Sacramento. James has been dealing with left ankle soreness for most of the season, so it's something that may continue to bother him moving ahead. That said, considering L.A. won't have Anthony Davis (foot) and Russell Westbrook (foot) on the floor, James could be in for a bigger night than usual for fantasy managers.

    LeBron James, Austin Reaves Will Miss Monday’s Contest

    Los Angeles Lakers power forward LeBron James (ankle) and shooting guard/small forward Austin Reaves (ankle) have been ruled out for Monday's game against the Suns. James' absence marks his second consecutive instance of missing both legs of a back-to-back, having dropped 33 points in 37 minutes Sunday in a win over Washington. With Anthony Davis (foot) also sidelined, Russell Westbrook, Dennis Schroder, Lonnie Walker IV and Thomas Bryant will stand to see their offensive roles increased exponentially, making the quartet potential upside DFS plays. While James should be ready to return Wednesday vs. Sacramento, Reaves' absence marks his first of the year, making his return to action the murkier of the two.

    LeBron James Will Suit Up In Philly

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) will play on Friday against the 76ers after getting the night off for Wednesday's meeting with Toronto because of left ankle soreness. While the absence was concerning for fantasy managers, it was mostly done for precautionary measures, considering the team was playing the second of back-to-back meetings. That said, James will return to his usual must-start status for the nationally televised matchup in Philadelphia.

    LeBron James Probable To Play On Friday

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is likely to give it a go against the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday night. He's been experiencing some ankle soreness, but he's also been on the injury report more than he hasn't so far this season. Fantasy managers will just need to keep tabs on the injury reports to make sure he's nothing more than questionable ahead of tipoff each time. Since he and Anthony Davis will both be back on the floor together, Juan Toscano-Anderson and Thomas Bryant will take a hit to their fantasy value.

    LeBron James Out Again On Tuesday

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (adductor) will miss his fifth game in a row due to his left adductor strain. He was officially ruled out well ahead of tipoff which doesn't provide any confidence that he'll return soon. The Lakers are likely being cautious since the team has struggled for the most part so far. As has been the case, Austin Reaves and Troy Brown Jr. will likely see added minutes and usage while James watches from the sidelines.

    LeBron James Remains Sidelined On Sunday

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (adductor) will miss his fourth straight game due to a left adductor strain. He seems to be progressing toward making a return sooner rather than later. There still isn't a firm date or timetable for his exact return, however. Austin Reaves and Troy Brown Jr. will continue to get more opportunities as James sits out. The former seems to be the bigger beneficiary and better streaming option. Anthony Davis should also get plenty of usage in his absence.

    LeBron James Likely Out Again Versus Brooklyn

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (adductor) isn't expected to play on Sunday against Kevin Durant and the Nets. The veteran sat out versus Sacramento on Friday night, so barring a miracle, he will miss another one. As a result, Anthony Davis is the obvious favorite to lead the way offensively. However, Russell Westbrook and Lonnie Walker IV may continue to see a significant increase in production.

    LeBron James Ruled Out For Friday

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The veteran forward was listed as doubtful for this game, but has officially been ruled out now. The Lakers are going to play it safe with James here, so maybe he'll suit up on Sunday. Until then, Anthony Davis and Russell Westbrook will see a boost in usage without James available. Also, Austin Reaves, Lonnie Walker IV, and Troy Brown Jr. will see more playing time on Friday.

    LeBron James Listed As Doubtful For Friday

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) is listed as doubtful for Friday's meeting with Sacramento. The King hurt himself Wednesday night against the Clippers and went for an MRI on Thursday, which revealed that he has a strained left adductor. He is officially considered day-to-day and it appears likely that James will sit out Friday's game. The veteran star has already played through a sore left foot, so he really needs to have some time off. With James out of the picture, we should see monster usage for Anthony Davis, if he doesn't end up sitting out himself, and the rest of the crew is expected to give a little bit of extra to make up for the loss of James.

    LeBron James Undergoing Tests For A Groin Problem

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James is undergoing tests for a groin problem that prevented him from finishing Wednesday's game against the Clippers. He left a 114-101 loss in the middle of the fourth quarter after he felt something in his groin. LeBron missed 17 games with a left groin tear back in 2018-19, so fingers crossed that he managed to escape serious injury. He had a big night with 30 points, eight rebounds and five assists, and the former MVP didn't rule himself out of Friday's contest versus Sacramento. "I'll go around [the clock] treatment for 24 hours, and if it's OK on Friday, I'll be in the lineup," James said. Fantasy managers should keep their eyes peeled for any updates on LeBron's condition prior to Friday's matchup.

    LeBron James Out Against Utah

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) won't play on Monday against Utah. James has been battling left foot soreness all year but has played through it. While there's a chance the ailment has finally caught up to him, he's likely getting a night off to rest after logging 34 minutes on Sunday versus Cleveland. The Lakers will be short-handed in addition to James being out, with Lonnie Walker (illness) and Patrick Beverley (illness) also sitting. As a result, guys like Juan Toscano-Anderson, Troy Brown Jr., Kendrick Nunn, and Austin Reaves will get some minutes, giving them all streaming appeal.

    LeBron James Probable On Sunday Night

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) is probable for Sunday's bout against Denver. James continues to appear on the injury report due to a sore left foot. However, he's averaging 25.8 points, 9.4 rebounds, 7.6 assists, and 1.6 steals, so it's obvious the ailment isn't bothering him too much. While James has shot a disastrous 24.4% from deep this season, he remains a must-start, but that goes without saying.

    LeBron James Likely To Suit Up Against Blazers

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) is likely to suit up on Sunday night against Portland. The 37-year-old is listed on the latest edition of the league's official injury report with left foot soreness. However, this ailment isn't anything new, so he should be ready to go for the meeting with the undefeated Trail Blazers. James is averaging 25.5 points, 12.5 rebounds, 7.0 assists, and 1.0 blocks in his two appearances this season. His three-point percentage could use some work. However, as long as James continues to produce in other areas, that shouldn't impact category managers too much moving ahead.

    LeBron James Drops 31 Points In Loss

    Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James cashed in a near triple-double in the team's opening-night loss to the Warriors. He finished with 31 points, 14 rebounds and eight assists on 12-for-25 shooting from the floor. Turnovers were the main issue for James and the rest of the Lakers. He contributed five of them to the whopping total of 21. On the other hand, at the age of 37 and entering his 20th season, James looks primed to be another top fantasy contributor. He's going to be a top player in any format this season as long as he stays healthy.
