LeBron James Fantasy Stats

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) is available for Wednesday's clash with the Pacers. The multi-time All-Star missed seven games because of a groin injury. However, he's played in the Lakers' last two games. Although it may take James another game or two to return to form, he's still a must-start in any fantasy format. On the other hand, DFS managers may want to consider other options, considering his rostering cost.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) is listed as probable for Wednesday's visit to Indianapolis. James returned from a groin injury against the Chicago Bulls last week and looks 100 percent. He played without any restrictions on Monday night against the Orlando Magic, registering 24 points, six rebounds, and seven assists in 38 minutes. Wednesday's game marks the beginning of a back-to-back, so it will be interesting to see if James will also be available for Thursday's rematch against the Bulls.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) is available for Monday's clash with the Magic. The 40-year-old suffered a strained groin during the March 8 loss to the Boston Celtics. As a result, he was sidelined for seven games. James returned for Saturday's loss to the Bulls, finishing with 17 points, six boards, four assists, and three steals. With that said, he could have trouble getting anything going on Monday versus a Magic team that has allowed only 106.1 points per game this season, the best mark in the NBA.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) is listed as probable ahead of Monday's game against the Orlando Magic. James made his return to the court on Saturday after missing the last seven games due to a groin issue. He finished with 17 points, six rebounds, and four assists across 31 minutes of action. The absence of James would mean a higher workload for Luka Doncic, Austin Reaves, and possibly Jarred Vanderbilt.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) will play on Saturday against the Bulls. The veteran injured his groin during the loss to the Boston Celtics on March 8 and has missed the last six games. The Lakers could certainly use him, with the team looking to catch the Rockets for the No. 2 spot in the Western Conference heading toward the postseason. It's logical to assume he'll see less minutes in his first game back from a lengthy absence, so he may not be the best choice for DFS managers. Still, James should be added back into all redraft lineups. With Luka Doncic (ankle), Rui Hachimura (knee), and Austin Reaves (ankle) available, guys like Gabe Vincent (knee), Dalton Knecht, and Jordan Goodwin won't be as productive for fantasy managers.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) will miss a sixth straight game on Wednesday against the Denver Nuggets. He continues to work his way back from a left groin strain suffered against the Boston Celtics on March 8. James is also expected to miss the second leg of a back-to-back on Thursday against the Milwaukee Bucks. During James' absence, Jordan Goodwin has joined the starting lineup, while Austin Reaves has significantly increased his offensive output. Over the last five games, Reaves has averaged 28.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 7.6 assists.

According to Jovan Buha of The Athletic, Los Angeles Lakers head coach JJ Redick said that forward LeBron James (groin) has already been ruled out for Thursday's matchup against the Bucks and Friday's matchup against the Nuggets, and is considered day-to-day moving forward. James' streak of missed games will extend to three after Friday's contest due to a left-groin strain. Despite being out of action for the next two games, the 40-year-old star forward could potentially return to the floor on Sunday against the Suns. In 10 outings since the All-Star game, he has posted averages of 28.3 points, 10.5 rebounds, 6.4 assists, 1.1 blocks and 1.0 steals during 36.5 minutes per game.

According to ESPN's Shams Charania, Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) is "expected to miss at least 1-to-2 weeks." The 40-year-old had a massive 22 points, 14 rebounds, and nine assists in Saturday's 10-point loss to the Boston Celtics. However, he suffered a strained groin late in the contest. James will undergo another evaluation within the next 24 hours after letting the injury "calm down." Still, with the Lakers gearing up for a deep postseason push, it's certainly possible he could miss more time beyond the two-week estimation. The Lakers won eight-straight games entering Saturday night and currently sit at the third spot in the Western Conference. But Los Angeles has a tougher schedule for the remainder of the regular season, so it will be all hands on deck while James is away. With Rui Hachimura (knee) battling a knee injury, Dalton Knecht and Dorian Finney-Smith could be looking at more minutes (and starts) moving forward, with Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves the favorites to carry the load offensively.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James left Saturday night's game against the Boston Celtics early with a left groin strain. James exited nearly halfway through the fourth quarter after posting up 22 points, 14 rebounds and nine assists in the 111-101 loss. As of now the team has yet to give an update on James' condition, but he should be considered day-to-day until further notice. If James is forced to miss time then expect more usage out of Luka Doncic in the starting lineup. Dorian Finney-Smith and Gabe Vincent have the potential to slide into the starting lineup as well if James cannot suit up for Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) will play on Saturday against Boston. The foot injury is nothing new, and he was listed as probable, so most fantasy managers already planned on having him in the lineup. The Lakers have won their last eight games, most recently beating the Knicks in overtime on Thursday night. While the Celtics defense should prove to be more of a challenge, James remains a top DFS option. Of course, the multi-time All-Star is also a must-start in all fantasy formats.
