After Lakers practice in Dallas today, Frank Vogel said LeBron James will be “doubtful” tomorrow vs. Mavs because of swelling after ankle sprain.
Anthony Davis went through practice, but will also be doubtful.
Bad news for national TV hype. Not so much for Mavs’ seeding hopes. – 3:58 PM
Brad Turner @BA_Turner
Vogel said Anthony Davis went through a full and live practice today since foot injury. – 3:55 PM

Frank Vogel just said to reporters that LeBron James is “doubtful” for Mavericks’ game Tuesday. Same for Anthony Davis, although that’s an upgrade. Davis went through practice today. James stayed at hotel for treatment on ankle, which as some swelling, Vogel said. – 3:54 PM

LeBron said this game was a microcosm of their season in many ways: “Another wasted opportunity.”
On his ankle: “I lost all explosiveness, couldn’t really get into the lane like I’d have wanted to.”
He’s missed 20 games this season, and Anthony Davis has played just 37 of 74. – 10:14 PM

So Joel Meyers really said “You know what they say, AD, that’s all folks!” on the broadcast? Pure fire by the G.O.A.T. ❤️🐐❤️🐐 – 9:26 PM
Jovan Buha @jovanbuha
Frank Vogel says Anthony Davis continues to ramp up his on-court activity but isn’t ready to return yet. – 5:37 PM

More on this storyline

It’s been almost two weeks of Davis getting in on-court shooting work before games, and as best as we can notice, the intensity of the workouts has been increasing. That’s a great sign as he returns from his foot strain — an injury that undoubtedly could’ve been worse. -via Los Angeles Times / March 25, 2022
While the Lakers haven’t said when he’ll return to game action — he’d need to be cleared for full-contact work first — Davis has said that he’s not concerned about needing a long ramp-up to get his wind back to where it needs to be. We still haven’t seen Davis running at full speed or pushing his pregame workouts to full speed. But we haven’t seen him slow down either, the team’s hopeful tone about his return matching his on-court progress. -via Los Angeles Times / March 25, 2022
