Renowned American insider for ESPN, **Shams Charania**, announced on his social media account X that 40-year-old NBA champion and leader of the Los Angeles Lakers, **LeBron James**, will fully join the main team’s practices starting Monday, November 17, after having worked with the Lakers’ affiliate team.

This could indicate that the King’s debut on the court for the 2025/2026 season might happen soon.

For the first time in his career, James missed the beginning of the regular season due to inflammation of his right sciatic nerve.

Last season, LeBron averaged 24.4 points, 8.2 assists, and 7.8 rebounds per game, participating in 70 regular-season matches.
