After injuring his ankle left ankle in Monday's win over the Jazz, LeBron James said Wednesday he will play against the Pacers.

James was considered a game-time decision Tuesday. He is averaging 25.3 points per game (the lowest mark since his rookie year) with 6.8 rebounds and 6.3 assists and is shooting a career-best 59.8 percent.

The Heat (18-6) lost to the Pacers, who they trail by two games in the standings, last week in their first meeting of the season.
