The four-time MVP was injured in a contest
against the Atlanta Hawks.
Atlanta forward Solomon Hill rolled into James' right ankle
while chasing after a loose ball with 10:50 remaining in the
second quarter. James let out a scream in frustration as he
grimaced while rolling around on the floor.
James, 36, is averaging 25.4 points, 7.9 rebounds and 7.9
assists in 41 games.
The Lakers have lost three straight games, beginning with the
game in which James was injured. Los Angeles hosts the
Philadelphia 76ers on Thursday night.
