James added, “To get to the finish line, I have to be very strategic and smart with how I manage my ankle/foot the rest of the season.” “Any line that’s in front of me.”

LeBron’s absence saddened the fans, and their disappointment was compounded when they nearly lost. Fortunately, LeBron and the Lakers prevailed, and they have no regrets.
The game, which was supposed to be the main event of the evening, was postponed by the NBA superstar. Even if the Lakers managed an incredible comeback, James’ presence in the game would have made things much simpler.
“The King” made it plain that his health comes first and that even the smallest indication of discomfort is reason enough for him to sit out of games. On Sunday, he looked decent enough against the Pacers, with 26 points, 10 assists, and 5 rebounds in the Lakers’ 150-145 victory.
LeBron has played in 62 games this season and, like his co-star Anthony Davis, has been generally healthy. However, the Lakers’ current winning streak must continue until the postseason if they are to have any chance of winning the West.
The deck is set against LeBron to play his best going forward due to his advanced age and high mileage on his body. He is currently 39 years old. However, the Lakers may have a chance to spice things up when the postseason finally starts next month if he can reserve his energy for when they really need it.
The Lakers Have a PlanThe Lakers had intended to contend for a top-four seed heading into the season. Rather, they’ve struggled mightily the entire season merely to remain over the play-in line. The Lakers are still just 9th in the West after having a strong second half of the season.
The Lakers are essentially guaranteed the ninth seed with less than a week until April arrives, so they will need to win multiple games to even be eligible for the opening round.
The Warriors, who have a team led by Stephen Curry who may go off at any time, could be the opponent in the opening game. In order to move on and face the Nuggets in the opening round, they will need to defeat the Mavericks or Suns, if they are fortunate enough to win that game.
Given hоw clоse the Lаkers аre tо missing оut оn the plаyоffs entirely, this is currently perhаps the best cаse scenаriо fоr them. But nоw thаt their pоsitiоn hаs been estаblished, LeBrоn Jаmes cаn just recuperаte physicаlly in prepаrаtiоn fоr the upcоming greаt bаttle.
If the Lakers are to have any chance against Denver, LeBron will need to be at his best, thus the process of protecting himself and saving his best starts now, while there is still some room for mistake.
In any case, LeBron has earned the right to use his body cautiously after 21 seasons, and it’s clear that the Lakers could benefit in the long run from it.
