Lakers Receive Optimistic Update on LeBron James' Return
ESPN NBA insider Shams Charania has shared new details regarding LeBron James as the Los Angeles Lakers superstar moves closer to returning to action. The 40-year-old forward has not yet played this season while continuing to recover from a right-side sciatica issue. James has taken a careful, structured approach as he prepares for what will be a record-breaking 23rd season in the NBA.
Despite his absence, the Lakers have maintained a strong performance early in the season. As James’ recovery progresses, anticipation is growing for his long-awaited return to the court.
Next Steps in James’ Recovery
“LeBron James has been working out individually, and I'm told that the next step for him is 5-on-5 live play,” Charania said. “He will not be traveling on the upcoming five-game road trip that starts in Atlanta this weekend. So, it's unclear when he will be able to get that live action while the team is on the road, potentially doing it with the G League South Bay team or waiting for the team to get back on November 16 and then begin the live play process.”
Charania added that the exact timing of these 5-on-5 sessions remains uncertain, signaling that while James’ progress is promising, his official return date has yet to be set.

LeBron James is nearing a comeback as his recovery advances, with his first 5-on-5 workouts scheduled soon though his exact return date remains open.
