The Los Angeles Lakers got a big win over the Houston Rockets on Wednesday at the Toyota Center. LeBron James played exceptionally well and scored 30 points on 13-of-14 shooting. According to the X reporter, he spoke after the game and showed how he felt, oh no, he didn't.
"LeBron: Look at me right now... I feel like I'm bullshitting, but in the game I felt great, before the game, I wasn't feeling that good. I was yawning and tired. I was literally just talking to myself, "Oh no, not on X," he wrote.
James continued to fire all night, missing only one shot. It was his best shooting night of the season, as he found ways to put the ball in the hoop at almost every opportunity. There were times when he felt every bit his age, including a massive collapse in the fourth quarter. But James came back and finished the game strongly.
When James dived in for a basketball in Denver earlier this week, it took him a little longer to get up. When he fell in Houston, he held his ailing wrist and sat on the hardwood for a few minutes. Despite being 41 years old, James is playing at a high level, which is perfect timing as we get closer to the playoffs.
There are still questions about James' future; He continues to perform as the second-best player on the Lakers behind Luka Doncic. As the Lakers sit in third place in the Western Conference, the team will continue to try to secure the No. 3 seed and make a deep run as James strives to stay healthy and be there for the team when needed.
