Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James starred in Tuesday’s game against the Clippers. He scored 46 points — on 16-for-29 shooting from the field and 9-for-14 from three-point range — dished out seven assists, and grabbed eight rebounds in the team’s 133-115 loss. So when the Lakers host Keldon Johnson, Jakob Poeltl, and the Spurs on Wednesday night, every Lakers fan under the sun will surely want to know: Is LeBron James playing tonight vs. the Spurs? LeBron James injury status vs. Spurs The Lakers have James listed as questionable for Wednesday’s showdown due to left ankle soreness, per a tweet from ClutchPoints’ Michael Corvo. Anthony Davis (right foot stress surgery) and Lonnie Walker IV (left knee tendinitis) are also listed as questionable to play for Los Angeles, and Austin Reaves (left hamstring strain) will remain out. LeBron James, 38, is in his 20th year in the NBA and fifth as a member of the Lakers. He’s averaging 30.2 points, 8.5 rebounds, 6.9 assists, 1.0 steals, and 0.6 blocks across 38 appearances this season.

He converted 32.4% of his treys over the last ten games to get his season average out of the 20s (30.7%). For as great of a player as James is, the Lakers should have no problem beating the Spurs on Wednesday, no matter if he’s playing or not.
