LeBron James Drops 30, Defers to Luka, 'TBD' for Back-to-Back

LeBron James delivered a strong performance for the Lakers in their 111-103 win over the Pelicans, tallying 30 points (10-19 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 7-7 FT), 8 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals, and 1 block in 33 minutes. This marks his second 30-point game in his last three outings, alongside Luka Doncic who also scored 30. James reiterated that Doncic is the 'franchise' and teammates must 'bend our game around him.' His availability for Wednesday's back-to-back game against the Spurs is 'TBD' due to his age and career minutes.
