Recently, NBA reporter Zach Lowe talked about the injury of Lakers forward James in his personal podcast "The Zach Lowe Show".
On October 10, the Lakers officially announced that forward James will undergo re-examination in about 3 to 4 weeks due to right sciatica.
Lowe said: "I said it last week. As long as he's not out longer than expected. I know Shams reported a return date of mid-November, so it's almost 15 games. That's why it's important that you have Luka (Doncic), I don't think it will affect the lower limit of the team. I have read and seen a lot of people with a medical background, or a lot of people have talked to people with a medical background, and they say sciatica can persist. The effects are long-lasting and you can't cure it. But I don't sense a high level of tension from either the Lakers side or LeBron's camp, and as you mentioned his extraordinary physical gifts, neither side is worried that this injury will really weaken him. I guess you can't verify it now, but I haven't sensed that concern from anyone, and I don't know if you have. "
Nash, a guest on the show, said he didn't either and was optimistic about James' comeback prospects.
