LeBron James suffered a tendon injury in his right foot against the Dallas Mavericks last weekend and will be reevaluated in about three weeks, the Los Angeles Lakers announced Thursday.
The announcement came after James returned to L.A. and was examined by team medical staff and physicians.
The Lakers are 1-1 since the win over the Mavs without James, losing to the Memphis Grizzlies on Tuesday but finishing its three-game road trip with a 123-117 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday.
James, 38, was hurt in Sunday's win at Dallas following a drive on Dwight Powell in the third quarter.
