November 15th - According to ESPN reporter Dave McMenamin, LeBron James practiced again today with the G League team, the South Bay Lakers. The Lakers are currently on a five-game road trip (Saturday against the Pelicans, Sunday against the Bucks), and James is practicing with the G League team. McMenamin stated, "On Thursday, James (in the G League) had his first five-on-five practice in nearly six months. More importantly, I've heard from multiple sources that he participated fully in Friday's practice. They did five-on-five scrimmages, and he was able to move quickly without any persistent pain in his lower back or right side." "The Lakers will return to Los Angeles on Sunday after their five-game road trip, and James is expected to participate in team practices. They also have a crucial game on Tuesday, so now is a good time to carefully analyze next week's schedule, and we can even boldly predict that that game might be LeBron James' long-awaited season debut! This would be historic; the moment he steps onto the court to start this season, he will become the only player in league history to have played 23 seasons."
