LeBron James listed as ‘questionable’ to play vs. Jazz due to left foot injury management

When it comes to LeBron James’ status for the season finale, we’ll have to wait and see.

James is currently listed as “questionable” on the official injury report for the contest due to left foot injury management. His final status will be determined prior to tipoff.

On the season, James has appeared in 59 games for L.A. and averaged 21.0 points, 7.2 assists, 6.1 rebounds and 1.2 steals per performance. The Lakers have to hope that James will be available, as they still have something to play for against the Jazz.
