The preliminary reports on LeBron James’ right foot injury are not promising.
According to Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium, James is “likely to miss an extended period of time” after getting injured in Sunday’s comeback win over the Dallas Mavericks.
“James suffered the injury in Sunday’s win over Dallas, played through it, and belief is he will be sidelined an indefinite amount,” Charania tweeted Monday night.
The Lakers had already announced that James would not play against the Memphis Grizzlies on Tuesday due to “right foot soreness.”
James injured his foot when he fell to the ground following a layup attempt late in the third quarter.
He remained in the game and finished with 26 points and eight rebounds as the Lakers erased a 27-point deficit to pick up a 111-108 win.
James posted a photo of his foot in a wrap on his Instagram story tonight. The Lakers’ hopes of making a playoff push were largely riding on him and Anthony Davis, so the team might be out of luck if James has to miss extended time.
