LeBron James says 'I'll be all right' after ankle causes exit

LOS ANGELES -- LeBron James limped off the court and into the locker room in the waning minutes of the Los Angeles Lakers' 130-120 loss to the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday.

"I'll be all right," James said after getting his left ankle examined, his 31 points and 13 assists in 36 minutes having gone to waste in the defeat. "It's just my ankle. It's just what I've been dealing with before the [All-Star] break, after the break. I'm just managing it the best way I can."

James said there was no specific play that caused him discomfort in the Kings game.
