It came to everyone’s attention recently that the Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James has entered the league’s health and safety protocols which has fans, teammates, and the entire organization quite worried about James. While we only got updates from his teammate Anthony Davis until now, James has also dropped some major hints about what has actually been going on.
LeBron James leaves an odd message on Twitter
James’ absence is a big setback for the team. When he missed eight games because of his abdominal injury prior to this, they had to suffer major consequences. A big reason for their current 12-11 record and eighth-seeded position in the Western Conference is his absence.

So, for him to be missing even more games, is quite concerning. More than that, everyone saw the way the Philadelphia 76ers suffered when Joel Embiid also entered the NBA’s health and safety protocols. However, as Anthony Davis mentioned, nothing is more important to him and the organization than LBJ’s recovery at the moment.
However, with everyone wondering about his health, LeBron James just dropped a somewhat cryptic message on Twitter. With the use of every emoji in the book possible to describe a fish, he posted that something real fishy is going on.

His absence could mean Anthony Davis steps up to lead the Lakers
While we can only assume what he means, some think that he is trying to figure out what this current situation could mean. In such a moment of need, it’s most likely that James’ right-hand man Anthony Davis will get a chance to step up.

This will definitely be an experience that will help him grow as a leader. As mentioned before, they will need Davis more than anything during this time. Since there is no definite timeline on LBJ’s return, there is no telling how long the purple and gold will have to survive without him.
Unfortunately, if it is anything like before, the Lakers are in big trouble. However, if they play like they did against the Sacramento Kings and stole the victory without James, there is a possibility that by the time he comes back, it won’t be too late.
Until then, Lakers fans can only hope and pray that their superstar has a quick recovery and returns to do what he does best.
