Los Angeles Lakers' LeBron James to miss second straight game due to ankle injury

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James will not play against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday night as he sits out a second straight game due to a sore right ankle, the team announced.

Anthony Davis, who went down with a right knee injury late in the fourth quarter of Tuesday's overtime win against the San Antonio Spurs, was listed as questionable for Wednesday's game.

James suffered the injury in Sunday's win against the Memphis Grizzlies when Desmond Bane fell into James' right leg after scoring a layup, causing James to go to the floor.
