Questionable for Tuesday
James (hip/foot) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves.
Analyse
James suffered a left elbow injury down the stretch of Thursday's matchup with the Nuggets, and he's missed two games since. However, he's now listed as questionable due to a right hip contusion and arthritis in his left foot. The team will likely re-evaluate the star forward Tuesday morning and monitor him throughout the day before providing another update on his availability.

Sits out practice Monday
Head coach JJ Redick said James (elbow/foot) didn't practice Monday but is still considered day-to-day, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
Analyse
James is dealing with a left elbow contusion in addition to lingering arthritis in his left foot, putting him at risk of missing a third straight game when the Lakers face Minnesota on Tuesday. The team will release its official injury report later Monday, and for now, the superstar forward should be considered questionable for Tuesday's contest.

Not playing Sunday
James (elbow/foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Knicks, Trevor Lane of LakersNation.com reports.
Analyse
James will end up missing a second consecutive game due to a left elbow contusion while also managing left foot arthritis. Rui Hachimura should remain in the starting lineup in James' absence, and Maxi Kleber and Jake LaRavia should both operate in elevated roles off the bench. James' next chance to play is Tuesday against the Timberwolves.

Game-time decision Sunday
Head coach JJ Redick told reporters that James (elbow) is considered a game-time decision for Sunday's home contest against the Knicks, Thuc Nhi Nguyen of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Analyse
James was tagged as questionable for Sunday's game due to a left elbow contusion that prevented him from playing against the Pacers on Friday. He will go through pregame warmups, at which point the Lakers will have a better idea of whether James will be able to play. His return would likely result in Rui Hachimura reverting to a bench role.

Listed as questionable
James (elbow) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Knicks.
Analyse
Head coach JJ Redick said Friday that James will likely be available to play in Sunday's game against the Knicks, but the questionable tag suggests that he remains day-to-day. Jake LaRavia, Rui Hachimura and Jarred Vanderbilt could see increased roles if James can't give it a go.

Likely to play Sunday
Head coach JJ Redick said Friday that James (elbow/foot) will likely be available to play in Sunday's game against the Knicks, Thuc Nhi Nguyen of the Los Angeles Times reports. He has already been ruled out for Friday's game against Indiana.
Analyse
James sustained a left elbow contusion in Thursday's loss to Denver and won't play in the second leg of this back-to-back set Friday. However, the superstar can be considered day-to-day ahead of Sunday's contest. With the 41-year-old unavailable Friday, Jake LaRavia, Rui Hachimura and Jarred Vanderbilt are candidates for increased minutes.

Analyse

Goes down with elbow injury
James suffered a left elbow injury during the fourth quarter and was unable to finish Thursday's game against Denver, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports. He ended with 16 points (7-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, eight assists, three steals and one block in 34 minutes.
Analyse
James was spotted receiving medical attention on the bench after going down hard in the fourth quarter, and while he was able to check back in with 2:05 remaining, he wasn't on the court for the last few possessions. After the game, coach JJ Redick noted that James was icing his elbow, and the discomfort he felt in the final period was severe enough to take him off the floor with the game on the line, per McMenamin. It remains to be seen whether James will be healthy enough to suit up for the second half of LA's back-to-back Friday against Indiana.

Turns in 21 points
James posted 21 points (8-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-8 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists and two blocks over 33 minutes during Tuesday's 110-101 victory over the Pelicans.
Analyse
James enjoyed a diverse stat line in the victory. James inched ever closer to an NBA record for field goals with eight baskets, and he'll likely pass Kareem Abdul-Jabbar against the Nuggets Thursday night. The combo of Zion Williamson and Saddiq Bey made for an imposing frontcourt for the Pelicans, but James turned the clock back with some nifty footwork and accurate passes to keep them on their heels.
