Lakers cautious as legend manages nerve issue
The Lakers opened training camp without LeBron James on the floor, as JJ Redick confirmed the 40-year-old superstar is dealing with minor glute nerve irritation. With no blueprint for a 23rd NBA season, the team is easing him in carefully.
Redick admitted they’ll play the long game with LeBron, even if he skips preseason. James agrees, saying his presence still matters. And honestly, if longevity were a stat, LeBron would already lead the league in miles… beating most rental cars.
