Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James is questionable for Sunday's home game against the Portland Trail Blazers with a left calf contusion, the Lakers announced Saturday.

James, 38, suffered the injury in Friday's 122-119 in-season tournament victory over the Suns in Phoenix. It occurred with 4:22 in the first quarter, when James drove to the basket and he took an unintentional blow from Kevin Durant's knee on his left shin. James gathered himself on the baseline before receiving treatment on the bench.

After the game, James was seen walking with a slight limp, and he told reporters that his shin was sore.
