LeBron James sidelined with ankle tendinitis, Lakers cautious with star player
LeBron James will miss the Los Angeles Lakers' game against the Minnesota Timberwolves due to tendinitis in his left ankle, marking the second time in two weeks that he has sat out the second leg of a back-to-back. The Lakers, who have lost three consecutive games, will also be without guard Gabe Vincent due to a knee injury. Despite the challenges, Lakers star Anthony Davis, who has been dealing with an ankle sprain and bone bruise, will play. The Timberwolves, currently leading the Western Conference, will also be playing in the tail end of a back-to-back.
