LeBron James injury update: Abductor strain ensures Lakers star misses Kings game 3

The Los Angeles Lakers’ season keeps going from bad to worse. After starting the season on a disastrous 0-5 streak, the Lakers thought they had turned their fortunes around with a couple of wins on the bounce but three consecutive defeats after that did no good to their morale. A fourth defeat on the trot followed as they lost to the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday night.

The Los Angeles Clippers emerged 114-101 winners over the Lakers at their latest outing at the Crypto.com Arena, piling further misery on the Lakers’ already troubled season. Just as the Lakers thought it could not get any worse, their talisman LeBron James had to go off the court in the fourth quarter – head coach Darwin Ham later confirmed that LeBron had injured himself.

While Ham said that the team would not know the severity of LeBron James’ injury until he is seen by the Lakers doctors as a possible MRI scan would be made to gain clarity, the MRI scan has not returned good news for the Lakers following. It turns out that LeBron has now been ruled out of the Lakers’ next outing against the Sacramento Kings on Friday night.

The injury report for the Lakers ahead of their outing against the Sacramento Kings at the Crypto.com Arena surfaced recently, and the biggest headline stemming from the report was the status of LeBron James – who has been ruled out of the Lakers’ next game against the Kings due to an abductor strain.

It seems like at the age of 37 and in the 20th season of his career, age finally looks to be catching up with the incredible physical specimen that is LeBron James. Although knowing King James and his determination, he will most certainly be back in no time to try and help his team.
