LeBron James Reveals Concerning Update Before Warriors vs. Lakers
Even though LeBron James participated in the NBA All-Star game, that doesn't mean he's fully healthy. LeBron was limited to playing only 13:48 in the game due to a nagging ankle injury, and it seems like that same injury may keep him out against the Warriors on Thursday night.
When LeBron was asked about his health after the game, he mentioned that he felt okay but that he was taking the injury cautiously.
"I feel pretty good. I mean, I feel okay," James said. "I definitely wasn't going to put too much pressure on the game tonight for me, physically. I want to try to be as healthy as I can be. When we get to this last part of the season, it's very important for us to make sure of that."
LeBron James was specifically asked about whether or not his injury would hamper him from playing against the Golden State Warriors on Thursday, and he gave an alarming answer.
"It possibly could," James said. "Depends on the recovery process, so possibly, but we'll see."
It's very clear that the main goal for LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers is to be healthy come playoff time. The team tip-toes the line between not caring about the regular season, but caring enough to make sure that they can secure a playoff spot. Either way, Thursday night's game is massive for playoff implications.
