Updates on LeBron James’ Groin Injury: What You Need to Know

Updates on LeBron James' Groin Injury: What You Need to Know
<div>
    <p>Many are eager to know when Lakers star LeBron James will be returning to the court after suffering a groin injury, as LA's postseason picture is far more positive with him in it.</p>
    <p>The latest from Shams:</p>
    <p>“Lakers star forward LeBron James has returned to Los Angeles, per medical recommendation, as he continues to progress well from a strained left groin, sources told ESPN's Shams Charania on Wednesday.”</p>
    <p>The Lakers have two games left on their four-game road trip and it won't be easy. Back-to-back games against the Bucks and recent rivals the Nuggets.</p>
    <p>Until Luka Doncic joined the team, the Lakers hadn't beaten Denver in almost three years.</p>
    <p>LeBron's longtime friend and agent, Rich Paul spoke about the injury this week.</p>
    <p>“He knows his body better than anybody, so we kind of have to follow him there,” Paul said on <em>The Pat McAfee Show</em> on Tuesday. “So I won't put a timetable on it. I'll let LeBron decide what was to be done there. He has a great trainer and medical staff with the Lakers, and Mike Nancias (Lakers athletic trainer) leads that for him and so, I'll just be in a lockstep with those guys.”</p>
    <p>Against the Celtics, James left the game with 6:44 remaining in the fourth quarter with what the team is said was a left groin strain and did not return.</p>
    <p>In the purple and gold's first game without James, they lost to the Nets and head coach JJ Redick went off in his postgame.</p>
    <p>“It was a very low-level communication game for our team,” Redick said. “I don’t think being short-handed is an excuse for how we played basketball tonight. We just wanted to take shortcuts. We ball-watched all night. We couldn’t even pass to each other. We couldn’t enter our offense running ball screens at literally halfcourt.”</p>
    <p>Hopefully LeBron will be back on the court for the Lakers soon, as his communication on and off the ball is unmatched.</p>
