Lakers’ superstar LeBron James injured his ankle vs. the New Orleans Pelicans on March 7. It was an injury he gutted through for that game, but he then proceeded to miss the next seven out of the final eight games of the season, other than the two sides’ rematch on April 1.
Information on the injury has been limited up to this point, but LeBron went into more detail during his exit interview on Monday morning.
Here’s what he had to say:
“I got the MRI on my ankle on Friday and there is no surgery required, no injections, but I’m gonna have to stay off of it for about 4-6 weeks to let it recover.
