Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is regarded as questionable for a clash with Boston on Christmas Day. James sat out a game last week with left ankle peroneal tendinopathy, but he's been playing through health issues for most of the season, and it would be a surprise if he didn't suit up on Monday. The veteran superstar returned from a one-game absence on Saturday with a spectacular 40-point performance against Oklahoma City, and he should shine again versus the Celtics. James is the all-time leading scorer on Christmas Day and has averaged 27.1 points with 7.6 rebounds and 7.0 assists on Dec. 25.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) isn't going to suit up for Thursday's showdown against the Minnesota Timberwolves with left ankle peroneal tendinopathy. Thursday is the second part of back-to-back games for the Lakers, so it's not overly surprising to see the 39-year-old James get the night off after handling 37 minutes in Wednesday's road loss to the Chicago Bulls. The future Hall of Famer just missed his second double-double in a row in that one, compiling 25 points, 10 rebounds, and nine assists with two blocks, a steal, plus one three-pointer. We'll deem James day-to-day ahead of Saturday's tilt against the Oklahoma City Thunder. In the meantime, Anthony Davis (ankle) would be L.A.'s focal point on both ends of the floor on Wednesday if he is able to play through an ankle injury. More playmaking will be asked of Austin Reaves as well, while Cam Reddish and Rui Hachimura figure to receive more run.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) and center Anthony Davis (hip) are both listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Both players were able to suit up on Monday without any issues. Right now, it seems that James and Davis are fixtures on the injury report. Despite that, they continue to play basically every game, so fantasy managers shouldn't be too worried. The Lakers would likely use a committee approach to fill the void if they both sat out. Fantasy managers should expect them to be active on Wednesday, but should double check before tip-off to be safe.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James recorded his 109th career triple-double in Monday's 114-109 loss to the Knicks. He got there with 25 points, 11 rebounds, and 11 assists. However, on a special night that started with the Lakers unveiling a banner for their victory in the inaugural In-Season Tournament, James struggled for efficiency, shooting 10-for-23 from the field and 2-for-8 from downtown. The NBA's all-time leading scorer also had a tough time putting the ball into the basket in his previous outing against the Spurs. He should be eager to improve in the next matchup against Chicago, especially with the team having hit a rough patch by losing three of its four outings since winning the NBA Cup.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) and center Anthony Davis (hip) are both active for Monday's game against the New York Knicks. As expected, both players will suit up despite dealing with nagging injuries. James and Davis will occupy their normal spots in the rotation and aren't expected to be under a minutes limit. Fantasy managers can feel comfortable getting both players back in their lineups for Monday's slate.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) has picked up another questionable tag for the Monday night game against the New York Knicks. The former MVP has only missed two games so far this season despite being listed as questionable for the bulk of them. He received a rest day in the first game of a home-and-home against the Spurs and then played 36 minutes on Friday. He'll most likely be able to play again, but fantasy managers should still stay tuned for any updates just in case. If James can't suit up, Rui Hachimura would likely move into the starting five while Christian Wood (illness) would see some more minutes if he plays.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) receives another questionable tag ahead of their Friday night game against the San Antonio Spurs. James was unable to play against the Spurs on Wednesday, but he has often appeared on the injury report as questionable and only missed a handful of games which seemed to be more of a rest day rather than an actual injury preventing him from playing. Fantasy managers will want to monitor his status as tipoff approaches, especially with Anthony Davis (hip) also listed as questionable. If James doesn't suit up, Rui Hachimura will likely remain in the starting five while Jarred Vanderbilt and Christian Wood will see some more time.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs due to a left calf contusion. James played a hefty 40 minutes in Tuesday's narrow 127-125 road loss to the Dallas Mavericks, piling up 33 points, nine assists, eight rebounds, and three steals in the close defeat. King James has only missed one game this year that came back on Nov. 12, returning first-round total value in 12-team category leagues for those fantasy managers who took the discount that existed in fall drafts due to fear of regular load management. The 3-19 Spurs haven't won a game since Nov. 2, so the ageless James could take a seat here and open the path to more playing time for Rui Hachimura and Cam Reddish and ball-handling duties for D'Angelo Russell and Austin Reaves.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) is once again carrying a questionable tag ahead of the team's first game as NBA Cup champions against Dallas on Tuesday. James briefly ditched the questionable tag at the weekend to pick up a probable designation ahead of Saturday's matchup against Indiana. It's a bit worrying that he's back to being questionable, but James has played through a calf contusion for multiple weeks now, so there's a strong possibility he remains in the lineup.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) has been upgraded to available for Saturday's matchup against the Indiana Pacers. The superstar forward has been carrying a questionable tag into games lately because of a calf contusion. Despite that, James has been able to play fine, so fantasy managers shouldn't be concerned. James is active and should play his normal role during Saturday's game. Fantasy managers should double check their lineups and make sure James is in there.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) is considered probable for Saturday's NBA Cup final matchup against the Pacers. It's a slight upgrade on his status, as James has played in 13 consecutive games while being questionable with a left calf contusion. The injury hasn't limited him in any way, and James has looked outstanding in his most recent outings, scoring 30-plus points in both previous knockout games in the in-season tournament. He averages 33.7 points in elimination games, which is the most all-time among players with at least 10 such outings. Anthony Davis (groin/hip) is also listed as probable ahead of Saturday's historic game.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) is active ahead of Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He was listed as questionable coming in, but it appears James is good to go for this game. It's also worth noting that center Anthony Davis (hip) and forward Jarred Vanderbilt (heel) are also active for this game. Fantasy managers who have James and Davis rostered should make sure to get them back in their lineups. Vanderbilt has played been playing minutes in the teens, so he won't be an attractive streaming option right now.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) continues to carry a questionable tag with him as the in-season tournament action is set to resume in Las Vegas on Thursday, with a semifinal against New Orleans scheduled for the team. Despite the injury, he's just logged 40 minutes in an intense quarterfinal and has played in 12 consecutive games, so there's no reason to think we won't see him on the court. James has had some of his best games of the season during in-season tournament play, averaging 26.2 points, 8.0 rebounds, and 8.2 assists with 56.5 percent shooting.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) will be active ahead of Tuesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. The superstar forward was considered questionable coming into this game due to a left calf contusion. Despite that, James will suit up and is expected to play his normal role in this game. The Lakes have also said that Anthony Davis (groin), Rui Hachimura (nose) and Jarred Vanderbilt (heel) will be active for this game as well. It looks like the Lakers are going to be at basically full strength for this tough matchup versus Phoenix. Fantasy managers should double check their lineups before tip off.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) remains on the injury report as questionable ahead of Tuesday's in-season tournament quarterfinal against Phoenix. He's played in 11 consecutive games while dealing with a left calf contusion, so it's safe to assume we will see him out there. James had 32 points against the Suns when the two teams met last time, and he's averaged 26.5 points, 9.5 rebounds, and 7.5 assists in the matchup this season. Expect to see him around the same numbers again on Tuesday night.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) is a game-time decision for Thursday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. James' left calf contusion, which he sustained all the way back on Nov. 10, continues to linger and cause his appearance on virtually every one of L.A.'s injury's reports ever since. James only needed to miss Nov. 12's game with the nagging issue and only played 29 minutes in Wednesday's 133-107 road rout of the Detroit Pistons. The 38-year-old future Hall of Famer remains a fantasy stalwart, providing second-round fantasy numbers with 25.1 points, 6.3 dimes, 2.2 three-pointers and 1.4 steals in 33.3 minutes per game in Year 21. With Cam Reddish (groin) questionable, Austin Reaves could be primed for a featured role off head coach Darvin Ham's bench on Thursday. Anthony Davis (groin/hip) is probable, so he and D'Angelo Russell may need to shoulder the offensive load in this one if James takes a seat.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) is currently listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. The superstar forward is back on the injury report due to a left calf contusion. The expectation is that he'll play through the issue. However, it's worth noting that this game is the front end of a back-to-back set. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Lakers rest James on Wednesday against the weaker opponent in the Pistons. The absence of James would mean more minutes for Christian Wood and Jaxson Hayes in the rotation. Between the two, Wood is the better streaming option for Wednesday's slate. Fantasy managers will have to check back for another update on James' status.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) was listed as questionable heading into the Monday night matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers. The superstar forward was listed as questionable more for a formality as he's been on the injury report a number of times with the calf issue and has played anyway. He and Anthony Davis will both be in the starting five as usual and the team will likely lean on them with a number of others still out of the lineup.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) is tagged as questionable again with the same left calf contusion that has been bothering him for a couple of weeks now. This is similar to last season where James was on the injury report close to every game with soreness from wear and tear. Fantasy managers will have to stay tuned if he needs a rest day or not. If he has to watch from the sidelines, since Rui Hachimura (nose) is also out, then Austin Reaves, Jaxson Hayes, and Christian Wood will likely all see added time.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) continues to carry a questionable tag ahead of Saturday's matchup against the Cavaliers. He hasn't been able to shake off a left calf contusion he suffered a couple of weeks back, but the injury has had little to no effect on James' performances, and he's even played through two back-to-backs with it. It looks like it's not a serious injury, and we should see James on the court again on Saturday. He'll definitely be desperate to play, as it's a road outing at his old stomping ground. The 19-time All-Star has averaged 29.0 points, 7.6 rebounds, and 7.1 assists for his career against his hometown team, scoring more points only against Boston.
