LeBron James faces a minor ankle injury as the Lakers prepare to face the Jazz, aiming to extend their winning streak.

LeBron James is listed as probable for the Los Angeles Lakers` upcoming game against the Utah Jazz due to left ankle soreness. This minor injury, sustained in a previous matchup, is not deemed serious, allowing James to remain a pivotal player for the Lakers. In their last game against the New York Knicks, he showcased his skills with 24 points, 8 rebounds, and 12 assists.

The Lakers are currently on a six-game winning streak and have won nine of their last ten games, including a decisive 132-113 victory over the Jazz in their last encounter. With tip-off set for 90 PM ET at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City, Utah, the Lakers are favored to continue their dominance, especially if Luka Dončić, who is questionable due to a left calf strain, is able to play.

In addition to LeBron, the Lakers` injury report includes Austin Reaves (left elbow contusion) as probable, while several other players are out due to various injuries. The Utah Jazz will also be missing key players, including Collin Sexton and Taylor Hendricks. LeBron`s current season statistics reflect his impact on the court, with averages of 24.4 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 9.0 assists over 47 games played.
