LOS ANGELES — LeBron James held the microphone while addressing the media Sunday before the NBA All-Star Game in Salt Lake City, focusing on what's ahead for the Lakers.
"It's 23 of the most important games of my career for a regular season," James said. "And, it's the type of mindset that I have and I hope the guys will have coming off the break."
The Lakers have 23 games left to put themselves in playoff position. They are 27-32 and 13th in the tough Western Conference. They begin their march toward the postseason Thursday against the Golden State Warriors at Crypto.com Arena.
