Lakers coach Darvin Ham has opened the door for the King to return before the end of the regular season.
When will LeBron James return to the courts? Questions so far unanswered, while the quadruple MVP has been out since February 26 due to a tendon injury in his right foot. In early March, the Lakers announced a three-week absence. In fact, the LA club reported that “LBJwould be reassessed within three weeks, which is significantly different. Knowing that the regular season will end on April 9, it is therefore not forbidden to think that the Angelinos will have to do without their number 23 to hang the play-offs. Except that Darvin Ham has opened the door to an upcoming return. “We expect it to return at some point“By the end of the regular season, simply said the LA Lakers coach before the game against Orlando (111-105 victory).
19-time All-Star and recently haloed the status of leading scorer in NBA history, LeBron James, 38, has 29.5 points, 8.4 rebounds and 6.9 “assists” in 47 games since the start of the current season, his 20th in the North American league. Without him, the Lakers have won six of their eleven games since the success against Dallas (111-108) on February 26. They are currently 10th in the Western Conference standings (35 wins, 37 losses), in the nails for the play-in and finally very close to the Top 6, synonymous with direct accession to the play-offs, and Dallas (6th, 36v-35d).
