Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James has had a stellar career so far. Despite missing over 140 games up until the 2021-22 season due to injuries, LeBron has managed to prove his worth on the court and establish himself as one of the greatest players in the NBA. Nevertheless, the last two seasons have been somewhat of a mishap for King James. Having suffered from an ankle injury, LeBron had to sit out 27 games during the 2020-21 season.

Although he did manage to take part in 45 games, it was evident that he was not in his best shape. As a result, the Lakers lost to the Phoenix Suns in the first round of playoffs and were eventually disqualified. Matters got worse for the Lakers as they failed to even make the playoffs in the 2021-22 season. LeBron again had to sit out of more than 20 games due to an abdominal injury. However, King James still managed to score an average of 30.3 points, 8.2 rebounds, and 6.2 assists per game.
