Alarm in the ranks of Los Angeles Lakers has meant since his injury Lebron James in the game against the Dallas Mavericks.
The Lakers pulled off a great comeback after coming back from 27 down to win 111-108 in Dallas, but after the game, the focus turned to the status of LeBron James.
The 38-year-old superstar turned his right ankle in the third period, writhing in pain on the floor, but continued to play and finish with 26 points, eight rebounds and three assists.

Nevertheless, after the end of the game the pains reappeared in the “King” who limped off the field. “I was better, that’s for sure. But I certainly wouldn’t have gone to the locker room when we had such a turnaround.” James said of his injury, closing by saying: “We will see how my leg is in the next few days and move accordingly”.
Well this doesn’t look good for LeBron’s foot??
