Lakers News: Frank Vogel Expecting ‘Bumpy’ End To Regular Season While Experimenting With Rotations

LeBron James returned to the lineup on Friday night after missing the past 20 games with a right ankle injury, but the Los Angeles Lakers were ultimately upset by the Sacramento Kings, 110-106.

James physically looked like his old self and showed no ill effects of his injury, but it was clear he and the Lakers were not on the same page as they struggled to connect on routine plays. Despite the uneven play, Los Angeles walked into the fourth with a 10-point lead but ultimately squandered it by allowing Sacramento to outplay them on both ends of the floor.
