The superstar is fit again – but he cannot prevent the 115:146 against the Chicago Bulls.
Basketball superstar LeBron James collected a sensitive defeat with the Los Angeles Lakers during his comeback after surviving groin injury.
During his first assignment after two -week break, the Lakers lost 115: 146 against the Chicago Bulls and revealed primarily in defense.
“That was perhaps the weakest defensive performance of the entire season – definitely the weakest of the past three months,” said Laker’s coach JJ Redick: “I don’t know if we have assumed that it will be going because the injuries are back. But it just doesn’t work that way.”
Not only James returned, Luka Doncic, Austin Reaves (both ankle injury) and Rui Hachimura (knee) were used again.
Above all, the Slovenian Doncic shone offensive with 34 points, but in the second half he also achieved less.
The Lakers made a total of 21 ball losses – too many to survive against the bulls. At Chicago, Coby White protruded with 36 points.
