LeBron James continues to experience soreness in his left foot, according to Darvin Ham.

“He’s experiencing some really significant soreness.

"So it’s gonna be the idea to kind of ease off him a little bit, let his body calm down a little bit, specifically his foot," said Ham after James sat the Lakers game against the Nets on Monday.

James has been averaging 37.6 minutes over the last 13 games, mostly played without Anthony Davis. 

James will be re-evaluated on Tuesday morning before the Lakers play the Knicks later that night. 

OG Anonuby is set to miss at least the next four games due to a left wrist injury.

With the Raptors currently on a road trip, Anunoby is set to get re-evaluated after the team returns home following their February 5 game at the Grizzlies.

The subject of several trade talks, the Knicks reportedly offered multiple first-round picks for Anunoby. 

OG Anunoby will miss the Toronto Raptors game against the Phoenix Suns due to a wrist injury.

Anunoby was injured during last Friday's game against the Warriors.

LeBron James and Anthony Davis will miss the Los Angeles Lakers' game against the Brooklyn Nets on Monday due to injury.

James is diagnosed with left ankle soreness while Davis will sit due to a right foot stress injury.

Austin Reaves will also miss the game due to a left hamstring strain. 

Chicago Bulls guard Lonzo Ball is "nowhere close" to returning, per Bulls coach Billy Donovan. Ball still hasn't progressed to consistent running a year after having meniscus surgery.

“He’s made some progress, but I’d be the first one to tell you he’s nowhere near playing,” Donovan said. “He’s just not. Because he’s not running on a consistent basis. When he can get to that place where he can do that consistently and be able to come back the next day and do it again, do it again and do it again — I think you’ll feel a little bit more optimistic.”

Ball last played in a game on January 14, 2022. Ball still can't run at full speed and do more than light jumping to shoot or dunk. Donovan said Bulls leadership would need to see significant improvement before the All-Star Break, or it's time for some difficult conversations.

“If you start to get to that point, I think there will probably end up being some conversations: ‘OK, what if he’s still not close to playing? What’s the plan going forward?’” Donovan said.

Luka Doncic is expected to be day-to-day after a "mild sprain" of his left ankle.

An X-ray was negative, and Jason Kidd said Doncic was in "good spirits" after the game.

"He looked good, he looked fine," Kidd said. "But we'll see how he feels as we go forward."

The Dallas Mavericks next play on Saturday at the Utah Jazz.

Danilo Gallinari tore his left ACL in early-September while playing for Italy in a FIBA World Cup qualifier. It's expected that Gallinari will miss the entirety of his first season with the Boston Celtics. However, the veteran forward isn't giving up on playing this season.

“My mind-set is that I want to play, and that I’m going to play at the end of the season,” Gallinari said. “I want to play in the playoffs. So that’s the mind-set that helps me every day get better and motivates me even more.”

Returns from ACL tears generally take up to one year. Danny Green is going to return to the Memphis Grizzlies in about eight months, while Joe Ingles of the Milwaukee Bucks returned in about 11 months. As an older player, Gallinari could push to be back earlier, as he doesn't have a remaining 10-plus years of his career to protect.

In recent weeks, Gallinari has done his rehab around the Celtics, even traveling for road games. The possibility of getting on the court with them before the season ends is helping to keep him motivated during rehab.

“My mind-set is there is definitely a chance,” Gallinari said. “So, when I think about the season, it’s definitely not a lost season for me. So, we’ll see. That’s the mind-set that helps me and pushes me to get better every day. If it happens, it’s going to be great. If it doesn’t, I’m looking forward to next season.”

Christian Wood will miss more time than initially expected due to a fractured left thumb and won't be re-evaluated until next week.

There was initial hope that Wood could have returned to the lineup this week.

Marc Stein of Substack adds that Wood, who will be a free agent this summer, may be a player to monitor should he be unable to agree to a contract extension with the Mavs. 

Luka Doncic left the Dallas Mavericks' Thursday game against the Phoenix Suns in the first half with a left ankle injury.

X-rays on the ankle were negative for Doncic.

Doncic was scoreless in the game.

Bobby Portis has suffered an MCL sprain in his right knee and will be out indefinitely.

Portis is averaging 14.4 points and 10.1 rebounds while shooting 49.9 percent.

The Milwaukee Bucks have dealt with injuries this season and just got Khris Middleton back.
