Your Basketball Thoughts |LeBron James is Back!| KINGSvsLAKERS| 4/30/2021 Kings rally to spoil James' return to the Lakers' lineup LOS ANGELES (AP) LeBron James scored 16 points in his return to the Los Angeles Lakers lineup, but it wasn't enough as the Sacramento Kings rallied for a 110-106 victory on Friday night. James suffered a high right ankle sprain on March 20 against the Atlanta Hawks and missed the next 20 games, which was the longest absence of his career. He played 32 minutes and was 6 of 12 from the field. He missed what would had been a go-ahead 3-pointer with 2.7 seconds remaining as Los Angeles lost for the fifth time in six games. The defending NBA champions went 8-12 without the four-time MVP and were also without Anthony Davis for 16 of those games. #LeBronJamesisBack! #KINGSvsLAKERS #MVPLeBron
