Report: LeBron may be out several weeks
LeBron James may be out several weeks with a right foot injury, ESPN reported Monday night.
The Lakers already had announced that the 38-year-old four-time NBA MVP would miss Tuesday’s game against the Grizzlies with a sore right foot.
James, who suffered the injury during the third quarter of the Lakers’ win against the Mavericks on Sunday but finished the game, will undergo further tests to determine the extent of the injury.
The Lakers were within a game of the 10th spot in the Western Conference ahead of Monday’s action.
Browns owners Jimmy and Dee Haslam have agreed to purchase Marc Lasry’s 25% stake of the Bucks in a deal that puts the value of the NBA franchise at $3.5 billion, according to reports. Those numbers, if finalized, would mean the Haslams plan to spend about $875 million for Lasry’s stake of the team. It would be the second-highest valuation in NBA history, behind the $4 billion valuation for the Suns and WNBA’s Mercury when Mat Ishbia acquired them in a deal that closed earlier this month.

He reported that he “heard a pop.”
