Three weeks since LeBron James suffered a foot injury -- and with three weeks remaining in the regular season -- Lakers coach Darvin Ham offered the most encouraging update on James' status to date.
James is expected to have his foot reevaluated by Lakers medical staff later this week, perhaps as soon as Thursday, to check on the progress of his rehabilitation program.
L.A. has gone 6-5 with James sidelined. At 35-37, they are tied for ninth in the Western Conference with 10 games remaining.
