LeBron James made his return for the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday and while he was a little rusty, he did just enough to help the Lakers escape with a critical overtime win over the Clippers.
James was a little slow to start, as anyone that hasn’t played in over a month would be, but he was still effective, tallying a game-high 24 points, 14 rebounds and 9 assists. He nearly notched a triple-double while going 60 percent. He also played over 40 minutes in his first game since Christmas.
LeBron James is still really, really good at basketball, in case anyone was wondering.
