LeBron, AD out vs. Thunder

Lakers’ LeBron James, Anthony Davis out vs Thunder

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) LeBron James and Anthony Davis missed the Lakers’ game against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Saturday.

Lakers coach Frank Vogel said James has a chest cold. Officially, the team said he has flu-like symptoms.

James is averaging 25.4 points, a league-leading 10.7 assists and 8.7 rebounds and has helped the Lakers to the best record in the Western Conference. He played on Friday night and had 35 points, 16 rebounds and seven assists in a win over the Dallas Mavericks. Vogel said the performance was especially impressive because James struggled with breathing throughout.

Davis, who leads the Lakers with 27.1 points per game, missed his second straight game with a gluteus maximus contusion.

Danny Green also sat out with a sore right hip. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Rajon Rondo and Avery Bradley moved into the starting lineup.

The short-handed Lakers faced a Thunder team that has won 11 of 13 games and rolled past the Houston Rockets on Thursday night.
