Still on the sidelines since his foot injury against the Mavs, LeBron James is obviously recovering quite well. According to the latest medical updates, the King could return by the end of the regular season, it remains to be seen when exactly.
If the Lakers manage their post-All-Star Break recovery rather well (7 wins in the last 10 games), a question remains on everyone’s lips in Los Angeles: when will LeBron James be able to come and help his buddies win the Playoffs? ? No longer appeared on a floor since February 26, the Akron native is waiting for his foot to recover to put his shorts back on. That’s good, Shams Charania from The Athletic seems to have dropped an ear on the side of Hollywood medics.
“I’m told (LeBron’s) right foot is feeling much better … the Lakers are bracing as if he will need a significant chunk of the remainder of the regular season to ramp up for a return.”

“I’ve been told (LeBron’s) right foot is much better … but the Lakers are preparing like he needs a lot of the rest of the regular season to prepare for a comeback.
We therefore leave rather on good news with a convalescence that is going flawlessly and without complications. Unfortunately for Darvin Ham and his people, it looks like we still have to fight without the winger for a while yet. There are only 13 games left for the Purple and Gold before the end of the regular season. It remains to be seen what Charania calls a “large part”.
Rather miss 6 or 7 or more than ten? The Lakers will need all their strength to make a place for themselves in the Western Conference. Currently 10th in the standings, the Californians are only two games behind the fifth place Warriors. We are entering the last corner of the season, it’s time not to crack.
