The Lakers have come under fire for a poor start to the season despite having James, Anthony Davis and Russell Westbrook on the roster. As of Thursday, the Lakers were 3-10 and 3-7 in their last 10 games.
James suffered an adductor strain last week and missed two of the last three games. The 37-year-old has not played as well as most people would have thought, and NBA pundits have claimed his age is starting to catch up with him on the court.
He is averaging 24.9 points, 8.8 rebounds and 6.9 assists in 10 starts this season, but he is shooting a career-low 23.9% from three-point range.
