LeBron James' Absence from Lakers Continues Amid Personal Reasons
LeBron James will miss his second consecutive game for the Los Angeles Lakers due to personal reasons, following a previous absence attributed to foot soreness. Lakers coach JJ Redick confirmed the absence is excused, emphasizing the need for rest given James' heavy playing minutes and recent shooting slump. James, who turns 40 soon, has not publicly commented on his absence but appeared on his wife's podcast. The Lakers, struggling with recent losses, will face the Grizzlies next.
