It has been claimed by Shams Charania that LeBron James will not be able to participate in the upcoming game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Los Angeles Clippers, which is scheduled to take place on Tuesday night. James is now dealing with an injury to his ankle.
Although the Los Angeles Lakers are still trying to find their footing in the league, this is a huge setback for the Lakers for obvious reasons. The Clippers have been on a roll as of late, while the Lakers are still trying to establish themselves as a contender.
In the absence of James, the situation is far more serious, and it is up to Anthony Davis, Austin Reaves, and D’Angelo Russell to lead the charge in the assault against the club that is largely regarded as being the most dominant team in the league. a major victory over the Brooklyn Nets, the same squad who humiliated the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night because to their ability to come from behind and win.
Assuming that Taurean Prince has fully recovered from the injury that prevented him from participating on Sunday, it is predicted that Rui Hachimura will take over the starting role for the Lakers in place of LeBron James. Additionally, it is anticipated that Taurean Prince will return to the starting lineup.
On the other hand, Los Angeles has a very little chance of making it to the championship game without James. The Clippers have an overwhelming amount of star power and a deep roster, which results in a big deficit for Darvin Ham’s squad. This deficit appears to be practically impossible to overcome in the absence of James considering the Clippers’ roster depth and star power.
