Lakers say LeBron James will suit up tonight against the Wizards. He needs 40 points to get 40,000 career points. – 9:51 PM

LeBron, AD and Reddish are all officially available for LAL tonight.
It’ll be the same starting lineup that’s now 7-1 after last night’s win. – 9:51 PM

Typical pregame regarding LeBron where we’ll wait until he goes through his pregame routine until confirming whether he’ll play or not on this second night of a B2B. – 8:55 PM

Curry already up to 14 points and 10 rebounds. At one time he and LeBron were the only visiting players with both a 50-point game and a triple-double at the current MSG. But nowadays anyone scores 50 or gets triple-doubles, so that may be outdated. – 8:32 PM

New video: Joined @KevinNegandhi on @SportsCenter where I explained that LeBron James is actually coming into the night with 40,024 career points already by my calculations. And sources told ESPN he is expected to play on the second night of a back-to-back. pic.twitter.com/VdqLapCHIM – 6:47 PM

Jake Fischer on the Hornets signing Aleksej Pokusevski
“There was definitely some two-way (Contract) stuff with Golden State, I heard Washington too”
Fischer also mentioned he’s heard Pokusevski could spend considerable time with the Greensboro Swarm this season pic.twitter.com/txSWtoPmPc – 5:04 PM

PMers: Jordan Poole was supposed to be a bright light for the Wizards as they start their rebuild. Instead, he’s struggled badly, and got benched. But it would be worse if Washington bailed on him. Poole & the Wiz need each other. In @TheAthletic: bit.ly/49JBkDg – 5:00 PM
