NBA RETREATUM: Key preseason updates are sent to Lakers players LeBron James and Anthony Davis…
With the NBA preseason now underway, the Los Angeles Lakers are set to play the Phoenix Suns on Sunday night. Not only that, but they’ll be at full strength.
The Lakers’ full starting five will play, via Spectrum SportsNet’s Mike Trudell.
“LeBron said the plan for him is to play tomorrow against Phoenix in Palm Springs,” Trudell reported. “JJ Redick said he expects Anthony Davis to play as well, so we should see the full expected starting 5.”
Los Angeles lost 124-107 to the Minnesota Timberwolves in its preseason opener on Friday, which was also head coach JJ Redick’s debut. However, James and Davis were held out.
