LeBron James assigned to the G League? Wouldn’t be the first superstar
LeBron James, still recovering from a nerve injury, may be sent to the G League for practice with the South Bay Lakers to prepare for his return to the NBA. This wouldn’t be unprecedented, as several NBA superstars, including Amare Stoudemire, Anthony Davis, and Kawhi Leonard, have previously been assigned to the G League for similar rehab purposes. Notably, Stephen Curry is recognized as one of the best players to be sent down during injury recovery. Such assignments have historically helped athletes regain their form before returning to the NBA.
