Uncertainty about the availability of superstar, LeBron James looms large. The Lakers face off against the Suns in the NBA preseason.

Will LeBron Play Against the Suns?

The Lakers face off against the Phoenix Suns later tonight at the Acrisure Arena in Palm Springs. One question many faces would have is: Would LeBron play in the game? The Lakers have been cautious with LeBron’s playing minutes, but at the moment LeBron isn’t suffering from any injuries. The Lakers head coach Darwin Ham suggested LeBron would play against the Suns, as he is obviously a part of the “Regular Rotation”.

Fans in Palm Springs might even get to watch LeBron for the longest duration in the preseason. As the Lakers limited King James to just one half in his prior two preseason outings. The Lakers will miss the services of Jarred Vanderbilt, Gabe Vincent, and Jalen Hood-Schifino for the game against the Suns, as they all are nursing injuries.
