LeBron James recently disclosed details about his Grade 2 MCL sprain, revealing it was a unique pain he'd never experienced in his 22-year career. Despite the Lakers’ elimination in the playoffs, James emphasized his commitment to the team, asserting that he would have missed crucial games had the series continued. Averaging 24.4 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 8.2 assists in the regular season, he played 40 minutes in the playoff elimination game but was far from 100% after a collision. With the offseason ahead, he aims to recover fully and enhance his partnership with teammate Luka Doncic to bolster the Lakers’ competitiveness in the Western Conference.
