LeBron James will miss Lakers' final two games

LOS ANGELES — Lakers star LeBron James will miss the team's final two games of the season because of his ailing left ankle.

The All-Star forward was injured March 27 during a loss to the New Orleans Pelicans. James returned to action last Friday in another game against the Pelicans but was unable to play Sunday against Denver because of soreness.

The Lakers, again playing without James, were eliminated from postseason contention on Tuesday in a loss to the league-leading Phoenix Suns.
