LeBron James, the 39-year-old superstar of the Los Angeles Lakers, is facing uncertainty regarding his participation in the upcoming game against the Atlanta Hawks due to a new injury. James has been listed as questionable for the game on Friday, December 6, 2024, because of soreness in his left foot.

Despite his recent struggles, James has been a key player for the Lakers, averaging 22.3 points, 9.0 assists, and 7.9 rebounds per game this season. However, he has been going through one of the worst shooting slumps of his career, particularly from the 3-point line, where he has been 0-of-19 over his last four games.

In the Lakers' recent loss to the Miami Heat, James broke out of his shooting slump with a 29-point performance, but the team still suffered a significant defeat. The Lakers' current record stands at 12-10, and they are in the midst of a slump, having lost six of their last eight games.

Lakers coach JJ Redick has hinted that managing James' minutes might be necessary, given the demanding schedule and the wear and tear on his body. `I don't know that's in the best interest of him and us if he does that, but if he's feeling well and feeling good, then he should play,` Redick said.

The injury to James' left foot adds another layer of concern, as it could impact his goal of playing in all 82 games this season. This would be the first game he would miss if he is unable to play against the Hawks.
