LeBron James, forced rest necessary?

If the Los Angeles Lakers did not start the season too badly and today have a positive record (12-9), LeBron Jameshe is not at the top of his form. The four-time MVP is even going through one of his worst periods in terms of skill. In difficulty on the field, he perhaps simply needs some rest. Except that he has set himself the goal of not missing a single match this season. A goal that could be undermined by its own frankness.

« I'm not sure it's in his interest or ours to do that. [jouer tous les matches.] But hey, if he feels good, he should play », confides JJ Redickwhich opens the door to a rest imposed on its best player.

LeBron James has missed his last 19 three-point attempts. 6 more misses and he will equal the record of Grant Williamsnamely 25 consecutive misses behind the arc. He was still uninspired during the heavy defeat against the Minnesota Timberwolves last night. Limited to 10 points at 4 of 16, he also finished with a differential of -28, the worst of the game. Moreover, he displays the worst +/- for the Lakers since the start of the season. Los Angeles' net rating is negative when he is on the field and positive when he is on the bench.
