LOS ANGELES -- LeBron James has a high ankle sprain and is out indefinitely, the Los Angeles Lakers announced Saturday.
James exited the Lakers' 99-94 loss to the Atlanta Hawks in the first half after Solomon Hill collided with his right ankle. James knocked over a chair in frustration on his way to the locker room, and received X-rays and an MRI on the ankle after the game, sources told ESPN.
Hill was called for a foul with 10:50 remaining in the second quarter when the Hawks' forward fell on James' right ankle while trying to steal the ball.
