The Lakers player that is finally making a return to the team, is not LeBron

The Los Angeles Lakers have been playing without their superstar LeBron James for several games and have won three without him, but coach Darvin Ham wants to recover all his players and has the complete roster fully healthy for the first time in the season.

It seems that LeBron James is finally returning on Friday. Still, another player is set to make a comeback to the roster, as he was out because of COVID just when he was getting important playing minutes.

The Lakers haven't won outside Los Angeles

Friday night marks an opportunity for the team to get their first win outside of the home, as they currently are 0-6, which is a terrible record. The Lakers are the only NBA franchise that hasn't won a single game on the road.
