Lakers star LeBron James is nearing a return from a tendon injury to his right foot suffered in late February, according to a report from Shams Charania and Jovan Buha of The Athletic.
Per the report, James has begun on-court activity as he continues to recover from the injury. The Lakers have not yet put a timetable on the return of James to the lineup, but league sources told Charania and Buha that he is hopeful for a return to the lineup within the final three to four games of the regular season.
Shortly after the report, James took to Twitter to deny it, writing, “There wasn’t an evaluation today and there hasn’t been any target date for my return.
