LeBron James has on Sunday night made his return to the court for Los Angeles after being away due to personal reasons.
James who has been away from the court and Los Angeles Lakers since Wednesday raised eyebrows when it was confirmed he was away for personal reasons.
The 39-year-old has missed his place in the squad last week with a foot soreness before it was again confirmed on Friday that he had sustained a left foot injury.

Revealing his absence from the court Los Angeles Lakers coach Redick told reporters he was out for personal reasons which had been excused.
‘LeBron is not with the team right now. He’s out for personal reasons, excused absence.’ he said.
The news comes at a time when Golden State Warriors are reported to be monitoring the 39-year-old with the hope of joining Steph Curry as confirmed by Brian Windhorst of ESPN
‘The Warriors have dreamed of pairing LeBron with Steph Curry and Draymond Green since last year,’ he said
‘So, they will definitely monitor the situation, and I don’t think they do anything without knowing this door is locked, but I would just say with LeBron, it’s up to him. He has a no-trade clause and he has given no indication he wants the Lakers to do anything but upgrade the roster they’ve got, not that he wants to go anywhere.’ he continued
James also fulfilled his dream of playing together with his 20-year-old son Bronny who was selected by Los Angeles Lakers for the 2024 Draft.
