"LeBron James recorded a triple-double with 28 points, 12 assists and 10 rebounds to lead the Lakers past the Mavericks 124-104 before All-Star break. The Lakers got key contributors back from injury including James, Austin Reaves and Marcus Smart as center Deandre Ayton remains sidelined. Leading All-Star vote-getter Luka Doncic's status for Sunday's game at Intuit Dome remains uncertain after he missed his fourth straight game with soreness."
"So before LeBron James led the Lakers with a triple-double of 28 points, 12 assists and 10 rebounds in a 124-104 win over the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday night, Lakers coach JJ Redick was asked about Doncic's status for the All-Star game Sunday at Intuit Dome in Inglewood. "It's above my pay grade," Redick said. Doncic was the leading vote-getter for the All-Star Game. So, Redick was asked again if Doncic would play in the game if he gets cleared. "It's above my pay grade," Redick responded again."
"The Lakers have reached the part of the NBA season in which they get a week off because of the All-Star break that starts Friday. It'll give the Lakers time to rest and, perhaps most importantly, to get healthy. Luka Doncic is at the center of what they do, but he missed his fourth straight game with left leg soreness, leaving the Lakers shorthanded yet again, a position they have found themselves in for most of the season."
LeBron James recorded a 28-point, 12-assist, 10-rebound triple-double to lead the Lakers to a 124-104 victory over the Mavericks before the All-Star break. The Lakers welcomed back contributors Austin Reaves and Marcus Smart, while center Deandre Ayton remained sidelined. Luka Doncic missed his fourth straight game with left leg soreness and his participation in the All-Star Game remains unclear despite being the leading vote-getter. Coach JJ Redick described Doncic's progress as strong but emphasized caution with soft-tissue injuries. The upcoming All-Star week provides the team an opportunity to rest and pursue health.
