LeBron James will be available to play for the Lakers against the Clippers on Friday after clearing the NBA's health and safety protocols.
after a false-positive test is the type of big deal that elevates an already big game — even if it wasn’t always that way for one of the local stars playing in it.
This is where James comes in after multiple rounds of negative tests have him cleared and ready to play after missing the team’s win Tuesday in Sacramento. If that switch isn’t a big enough surprise for the Clippers, James’ presence on the court will certainly alter the plans. Thought to be out for at least a handful of games after testing positive for COVID-19 on Tuesday, James’ results were rerun with conflicting results. He remained in the NBA’s health and safety protocols until Thursday after he produced two negative tests more than 24 hours apart.
Friday will be Westbrook’s first taste of the local rivalry, though reportedly he was interested in seeing it from Leonard’s sideline before the Clippers landed George. Westbrook didn’t comment on the issue Thursday, mostly parrying questions because of his disdain from anonymous sources speaking on his behalf.
Both teams have struggled plenty this season, the Lakers’ inconsistencies plaguing them from the start. Yet while the Clippers try to figure out life without Leonard, the Lakers seem to be getting used to one another in recent games.
