It was revealed that James suffered a right sciatic nerve injury! He will be out for at least 3-4 weeks and will miss the early games of the new season.

On October 10, there are 12 days left before the start of the new NBA regular season. Earlier today, Shams reported that Lakers star James will be sidelined for 3-4 weeks due to injury, and he will also miss the beginning of the new season.

The Lakers have currently played two preseason games, and James has not played in either game due to injury. His injury has attracted speculation from the media and fans. According to Shams, a famous reporter, James will be sidelined for at least 3 to 4 weeks due to right sciatica. He will miss the beginning of the 2025-26 NBA season.

According to previous reports, James has been determined to miss all preseason games. His goal was to return in the opening game, but it seems that this goal has been difficult to achieve.

Lakers reporter Buha said this when talking about James' injury: "If it is really out of strategic considerations to prevent injuries, I completely understand that he was officially notified that he was on the injured list due to hip discomfort. With his age and game load, no one in the league is more worthy of load management than him. The most ideal thing now is to let him participate in several team training before the opening game. After all, the lineup needs to be accumulated in actual combat. But having said that, rather than risking him getting injured, I I would rather choose the current conservative solution. "

It is worth mentioning that when talking about his current state, James once said: "I am 40 years old and will soon turn 41. I don't have to force myself to reach 100% state in October and November. I think my state will improve every month. But I'm happy with where I am right now. "
