On Monday night, during the game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Houston Rockets that was being played at the Toyota Center, LeBron James suffered a terrifying fall in the fourth quarter. Dillon Brooks delivered a blow to the head, causing the four-time NBA champion to fall to the ground. James was obviously dissatisfied with the maneuver that the Rockets forward made, and as a result, the Rockets forward was called for a flagrant foul. Nevertheless, the Lakers suffered a defeat in the first in a stretch of five games that they played away from home. The score is now 24-24 after they were defeated by Houston by a score of 135-119.

During the time when James was attempting to make a layup, Brooks was standing directly behind the Lakers forward. He came down in an attempt to stop the shot, but instead he whacked the 39-year-old player on the head.

James vented his frustration, and although Brooks was indeed cautioned for committing a serious foul, he was not dismissed from the game as a result of his actions. Within the context of the game, James finished with 23 points, 6 rebounds, and 10 assists. James, along with Anthony Davis (23 points, 7 rebounds), and D’Angelo Russell (23 points), were responsible for the majority of the touchdowns that were scored by Los Angeles.

Alperen Sengun contributed 31 points and 12 rebounds to the Rockets’ total, while Jalen Green scored 34 points and grabbed 12 rebounds to help propel the team to victory. This was Jabari Smith Jr.’s 18th game of the season.

After a heated disagreement with Brooks, Jarred Vanderbilt was promptly called for two technical fouls, which added to the tension that was already there in the game. He started by punching him in the chest, and then he proceeded to poke him in the side of the head following that. In the absence of his defense, the Lakers were unable to keep up with the Rockets’ rapid pace.

There is a possibility that LeBron James will be available for the game against the Hawks.

LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers will travel to Atlanta to play the Hawks on the second night of their back-to-back matchups. This comes after the Lakers suffered a defeat at the hands of the Rockets on Monday night. James stated that he plans to be available for the game, despite the fact that it is generally believed that one of the star players will take the day off.

In the game versus Houston, James played for 37 minutes. As a result of the Purple and Gold’s “one step forward, two steps back” run, it should come as no surprise that the former Most Valuable Player is interested in participating in the back-to-back games. Davis, for his part, has been a consistent play in the side despite the fact that he has been dealing with ailments related to his ankle and groin.

L.A. has had a difficult season despite the fact that LeBron James has been consistent and has played well in both directions. The next team they will face is the Atlanta Hawks, a team that has Dejounte Murray, one of their most sought targets, on their roster. The only thing that can tell us whether or not the Lakers are able to pull off a victory and improve their numbers in road games is time.
