Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James continues to work out individually while recovering from the sciatica affecting his lower back and right side, and the next step in his return will be progressing to live 5-on-5 reps in practice, sources told ESPN's Shams Charania on Wednesday.
James will not travel with the Lakers on their upcoming five-game road trip through Atlanta, Charlotte, Oklahoma City, New Orleans and Milwaukee, sources told ESPN.
While the Lakers are on the road, their G League affiliate, the South Bay Lakers, will be practicing at the team's practice facility in El Segundo, California.
