As expected, LeBron James (left foot soreness) has been listed as out for the Los Angeles Lakers’ contest against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday night. Meanwhile, Austin Reaves (left pelvic contusion) is listed as questionable for the game.
This will be the second consecutive game missed for James after suiting up for the Lakers’ first 23 games this season. This could be a bit of a long-term play for the LeBron and the Lakers, however, as this would give him eight full days off to recharge his batteries, assuming he were to play on Sunday against the Memphis Grizzlies.
