LeBron James is taking time away from the Los Angeles Lakers amid on-court struggles and off-court controversy this season.
The NBA legend missed his first game of the season when the Lakers faced the Portland Trail Blazers Sunday, suffering with foot soreness.
The absence comes just months after a video on James on an Instagram live with Sean ‘Diddy‘ Combs went viral.
Last month, the NBA’s all-time leading points scorer announced that he was quitting social media in a bizarre post.
James fulfilled his dream of playing alongside his son, Bronny, in the NBA this season when the 20-year-old was selected by the Lakers in the second round of the 2024 Draft.
