LOS ANGELES (AP) — LeBron James is in the Los Angeles Lakers' starting lineup against Utah on Tuesday night to begin his unprecedented 23rd NBA season.The 40-year-old James has been sidelined since the start of training camp by sciatica, keeping him out of the preseason and the Lakers' first 14 games of the regular season. James, who had never before missed a season opener in his basketball life, returned to contact basketball activity last week before participating in his first Lakers practice of the new season Monday.While James went through his pregame workout one hour before tipoff, the Lakers confirmed he was available to play when they hosted the Jazz at their downtown arena. About 30 minutes before tip, the team confirmed James would start for the 1,561st time in his 1,563rd regular...

LeBron James is back and set to make his debut for the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday night.Before the start of the 2025-2026 NBA season, it was revealed that James was battling a sciatica injury. While he admitted there was a bout with that setback before, it occurred during the offseason, when he had more time to rest. This time around, the timing made it difficult for LeBron to suit up in time for the beginning of the Lakers’ season.On Tuesday, a home game against the Utah Jazz will be an opportunity for LeBron to get back out on the floor. While the Lakers are already well-aware of what the superstar forward brings to the table, he admitted there is a bit of an uphill challenge in front of him as he gets back into basketball shape.“Obviously, my lungs feel like a newborn baby,” James to...

The Golden State Warriors (9-7) had their three-game winning streak snapped with a 121-113 loss to the Orlando Magic (8-7) on Tuesday. Stephen Curry (34 points) and Jimmy Butler (33 points) combined for 67 points, but the Magic still won pretty comfortably with six players in double figures.

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr is sounding the alarm on a troubling trend affecting the league that could potentially worsen down the line. The NBA has faced some huge crises over the past few months. The Kawhi Leonard-Aspiration issue in the offseason raised concerns about the Los Angeles Clippers potentially circumventing the salary cap. The arrests of Chauncey Billups and Terry Rozier highlighted the growing threat of sports gambling on the integrity of the game. While those fiascos have understandably grabbed headlines, Kerr recently expressed unease about a different issue that’s flying under the radar. The Warriors coach admitted to ESPN’s Anthony Slater that he is “very concerned” that the heightened pace of play in the modern game over an 82-game schedule may fin...

LeBron James, who will make his season debut Tuesday night vs. the Jazz, has spent the better part of two decades playing Atlas for franchises that would collapse without him to keep them aloft. He's also spent a good chunk of that time making it clear he was ready for that to change. Heck, that was what motivated him to ditch the Cleveland Cavaliers for the Miami Heat in the first place. As far back as 2017, he talked about handing the Cavaliers over to Kyrie Irving. That was eight All-NBA selections ago. The Lakers made a point of supporting him with ball-handling from the moment he arrived in Los Angeles and, when that wasn't enough, he pushed for the disastrous Russell Westbrook trade. The moves kept failing. James kept playing Superman.In fairness, it's all he's ever really done in th...

Steve Kerr entered the season knowing the Warriors would require considerable handling to have any chance of maintaining the health of a roster with such a vulnerable core. So far, mostly good for Golden State. But Kerr also is hoping that the Warriors don’t become susceptible to a disturbing trend around the NBA involving injuries. Rarely does a day go by without a player sustaining a lower-body injury that sidelines him for at least a week. Of the 53 players declared “out” on the injury report Tuesday, 42 fall into one of seven categories: Hip, groin, hamstring, calf, knee, ankle or foot. “I’m very concerned,” Kerr told reporters before the Warriors vs. Magic game in Orlando. “The pace difference is dramatic. This team tonight (the Magic) has really upped their pace compared to last ...
