Lakers News: LeBron James Knew Warriors Employee Intentionally Had Him ‘Take The Long Route’ To Locker Room After Groin Injury

In his first game against the Golden State Warriors as a member of the Los Angeles Lakers, LeBron James had 17 points, 13 rebounds and 5 assists in 21 minutes. Unfortunately, James suffered a groin injury after slipping in third quarter.

As the 33-year-old tried to stretch out his groin area during a timeout, he walked gingerly to the locker room and was eventually ruled out for the remainder of the game.

Following the 127-101 Christmas Day win, James shared a Warriors arena worker was not particularly sympathetic about his injury or the path he should take to the locker room, according to Chris Haynes of Yahoo!
