LeBron James will give his injured right ankle one more day of rest Tuesday, when the Los Angeles Lakers take on the New York Knicks. James is targeting a return on Wednesday against the Houston Rockets, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski and Dave McMenamin.
Frank Vogel said James was a full participant in practice om Monday, and though it seemed like James was trending toward a return vs. New Yok, the Lakers coach but did not officially reveal his status during that availability.
"We did some drill work. We did some contrived scrimmages and we did a short, full scrimmage," Vogel said when asked what Monday's practice entailed.
