The LA Lakers are trying to get back on another winning run after decimating the New Orleans Pelicans in the last game.

However, they might miss their superstar LeBron James for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons due to left ankle peroneal tendinopathy.

James’ name is on the questionable list for the game against the worst side in the league this season. 


The Lakers were on a three-game unbeaten run in which they defeated the Boston Celtics, New York Knicks, and Charlotte Hornets.

However, their run was ended by the Denver Nuggets on 9th February.
