As for the King himself, here is a tweet putting his recent performances into historic perspective.

With Anthony Davis out, the Lakers need all the help they can possibly get. And so, with his ankle having given him problems for the entire season, it’s important to ask…
Is LeBron James going to be healthy enough to feature tonight?

LeBron James has played through injury on so many occasions, the man has become known for it by now. And it appears that against the Sacramento Kings, he is looking to do so yet again.
Simply put, LeBron James has been labeled as probable to play in the game tonight.
Lakers injury update for tomorrow’s game in Sacramento:
— LeBron James (left ankle soreness) is probable
— Russell Westbrook (left foot soreness) is questionable
— Austin Reaves (right ankle sprain) is doubtful
— Anthony Davis and Juan Toscano-Anderson are out— Jovan Buha (@jovanbuha) December 21, 2022
Despite their uptake in form, the Lakers can’t afford to stop there. They need more wins, and they need them immediately.
However, the Kings currently sit 6th in the Western Conference and have won 6 of their last 10 games.
Even with LeBron James, are the Lakers good enough to beat this team as they are?
Frankly, this contest could go either way and so, will likely be a game that will be incredibly fun to watch.
