LThe Los Angeles Lakers fell at home against Phoenix (108-90) on Tuesday in the NBA, and may fear for their superstar LeBron James, victim of an ankle injury.
The Suns, led by Devin Booker (24 pts) and Deandre Ayton (19 pts, 11 rebounds), consolidate their first place in the Western Conference while the Lakers, for which it is the third defeat in a row, are 7th.
LeBron, the Lakers’ top scorer with 34 points, was injured in the middle of the third quarter when he fell back on his support after an attempt to score. His left foot tripped over the foot of Suns player Jae Crowder.
LeBron collapsed, rolled onto the floor, and punched the floor with his fist in rage. He continued to play but then came out for the last quarter.
