LeBron James didn't finish the game against Boston due to injury
On the night of Sunday, March 9, the Los Angeles Lakers faced the Boston Celtics and fell short with a score of 111-101. However, the defeat isn't the only bad news for Lakers fans.
Details: In the fourth quarter, Los Angeles' leader and star LeBron James couldn't continue the game. According to ESPN, he was diagnosed with a groin injury after the match. Initially, it was expected that he would miss a few days, but the situation looks more serious—recovery may take several weeks.
By the way, Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic recorded another triple-double in the NBA regular season game against the Phoenix Suns (149-141). However, this time his achievement is unique.
The 30-year-old Jokic became the first player in NBA history to record a triple-double with 30+ points, 20+ rebounds, and 20+ assists in a single game.
Reminder: LeBron is the first player in NBA history to surpass 50,000 career points. He is the league's all-time leading scorer.
