As reported by journalist Shams Charania during his appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show,” it has been revealed that LeBron James played for the Los Angeles Lakers in the past few months, including the NBA playoffs, while injured.
According to Shams, LeBron, who is currently 38 years old, suffered from a ruptured tendon in his foot during this period.
According to Shams Charania, there is a possibility that LeBron James may have to undergo surgery during the offseason due to the ruptured tendon in his foot that he played with in the last few months of the season. The surgery could require a recovery period of about two months during the offseason.
After the sweep in the Western Conference Finals against the Denver Nuggets, LeBron mentioned the possibility of considering retirement from basketball.
Despite being 38 years old, LeBron had a remarkable performance in the playoffs, averaging 24.5 points, 9.9 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 1.1 steals, and 1.1 blocks per game.
