LeBron James

SF, Los Angeles Lakers

Lebron James will miss Saturday's game vs. the Thunder with a cold.

This is unexpected news given that James played on Friday, but it's also perfectly understandable on the second half of a back-to-back. James should be fine for next week. In his absence, expect Rajon Rondo to take over primary ballhandling duties while Alex Caruso and Quinn Cook will likely get a bump in minutes. It remains to be seen what this Lakers team looks like with both James and Anthony Davis off the floor, but we can assume that it won't be pretty.
