Will LeBron James be playing tonight versus the Portland Trail Blazers?
LeBron James‘ recent recovery from his Sciatica injury stirs concern among his fans and the media, prompting questions ahead of each Lakers’ game.

He is not included in the official injury report, marking the fifth straight game for the Lakers icon.
James has posted outstanding statistics this season, averaging 22.7 points, 6.9 assists, 5.8 rebounds, and 1.1 steals per game, which is significant.
