The Lakers announced the decision about five hours before they hosted the Spurs in the second night of a brutal back-to-back set against the Western Conference’s top two teams. Los Angeles lost to Oklahoma City on Monday.

Los Angeles is also holding out NBA scoring leader Luka Doncic (left hamstring strain) for the third straight game, along with Austin Reaves (left calf injury management) and Marcus Smart (right ankle).

James is playing in his unprecedented 23rd NBA season, but he missed training camp and the Lakers’ first 14 games due to sciatica. He has played in back-to-back games at times since getting healthy, but the Lakers have also monitored his health closely in hopes of keeping him relatively fresh for the stretch run.
