By LeBron James at the disposal of Darwin Ham will be lined up Lakers (23-28 record) in tonight’s matchup against the New York Knicks (27-24 record) at Madison Square Garden.
The “king” who is looking for 117 points to break Kareem Abdul Jabbar’s record as the leading scorer in the history of the league did not play in the loss (121 – 124) against the Brooklyn Nets in the early hours of Tuesday.
The forward of the “lake people” had stated that what he loves most in New York is to compete in the city’s arena, which has not happened since January 2020.
The four-time NBA Finals MVP was absent from last year’s game due to a suspension, while in 2021 he was injured. So today he will have the opportunity to return in front of the city’s audience, in a match that also has a very important scoring character in the effort made by the Los Angeles team to “climb” into the positions that lead to the play-in tournament.
Possibilities to return to competitive action also have Anthony Davis, who also sat out against the Nets, while the Lakers will be without the services of Patrick Beverley. The match is scheduled for 02:30 in the morning on Wednesday.
