LeBron James had appeared in all 23 of the Lakers’ games this season through Sunday. James, 39, missed Los Angeles’ game against the Trail Blazers due to soreness in his left foot, ESPN’s Dave McMenamin reports.

James played a season-high 43 minutes in an overtime loss at the Hawks on Friday. He collected 39 points, 11 assists, 10 rebounds and three blocked shots. He averages 23 points, 9.1 assists and 8.0 rebounds.

He was already listed as probable on Sunday before being downgraded to doubtful following the team’s bye.

Austin Reaves missed his fifth straight game due to a left pelvic contusion.
