NBA: another Clippers misstep, James nearly ready for Lakers
One contest on NBA night. Spotlight on the Phoenix Suns, who disposed of the LA Clippers at home. It ended 115-102 for the Suns. Decisive was the third part, won by the hosts with a net 40 to 23.
.
Of note was the excellent performance of Jalen Green who, in his season debut, finished with 29 points, with as many as six triples scored. On the other side, without Leonard and Harden, Zubac’s 23 points, with 11 rebounds, were not enough. For the Clippers it was their third loss of the season (3-5 record). They are currently winless away from Los Angeles (0-3).
The’other Los Angeles franchise, on the other hand, waits for LeBron James’s debut, now getting closer. Struggling with a nagging sciatica, LBJ has not played a single minute in what will be his 23rd season in the NBA.
King James, if all goes well, should finally be ready and draftable by mid-November. Meanwhile, without his help, the LA Lakers are still doing great. To date, the record stands at seven wins and only two losses. Many believe that this is now Luka Doncic’s team and no longer LeBron James’. Who knows how LBJ will perform upon his return.
