LeBron James is set to take a significant step towards his return by participating in his first full practice with the South Bay Lakers, the G League affiliate of the Los Angeles Lakers, on Wednesday. James, who has yet to appear in an NBA game this season, will engage in 5-on-5 activities, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania. While the timeline for his official return remains uncertain, this assignment signals progress in his recovery, with Luka Dončić and Austin Reaves continuing to lead the Lakers in his absence.
