LeBron James played solid, but not great. But will his ankle injury keep him out for Christmas Day? 

Lake Show Life broke LeBron’s parts of the post game with a message that was highlighted in black during the preseason. It always said the same thing,

What really matters: LeBron James did not get injured in the game! 

Well, this report can’t carry on the trend like the Lakers’ slow starts to games. LeBron James tweaked his ankle possibly stepping on Ivica Zubac’s foot. After the game, LeBron showed no reason why he wouldn’t be out on the floor the next game against the Dallas Mavericks on Christmas Day.

If he does sit out (Or Frank Vogel makes him!) it will be a part of the franchise’s plans of playing the marathon game instead of a sprint.

LeBron did have his moments in the game. Excuse us, Paul George, can you take this picture real quick. Cheese!

LeBron James finished the game with 22 points, (7-17 shooting, led the team with three shots from distance!), 5 rebounds (2 offensive!), 5 assists, but 4 turnovers. This was eerily similar to the game last year. Solid, but not aggressive. Sure this team has gotten better talent-wise, but Lake Show Life knows that James has to dominate the star matchup with the top teams in the NBA.

But on this night, LeBron obviously was thinking about his ring. Who could blame him? Regular-season losses to the Clippers is one thing. Beating the Clippers four times in 10 days around June leads to rings.

Now that LeBron James is accounted for, how about the other Lakers superstar Anthony Davis? Read on to see how he fared in this game.
