The Los Angeles Lakers decimated the Atlanta Hawks last night. LeBron James and Co. improved to a 37-32 record after blowing out the Hawks 136-105. The Lakers are enjoying a 3-day break as their next game is on Friday against the Philadelphia 76ers. And King James is using this off-time to spend some quality time with his family. Yes! He’s breaking a leg with his 9-year-old daughter, Zhuri, and his wife, Savannah.
Savannah James shared the wholesome video of the trio dancing on her Instagram story. Savannah captioned the video, “Back at it” followed by two laughing emojis. The James Family was having fun despite it being a school night for Zhuri. The video was extremely heartwarming as LeBron, Savannah, and Zhuri were totally in sync throughout the dance routine. It is great to see LeBron prioritizing his family despite his busy schedule.
Even though LeBron has a long break before his next game, he has been busy with his new off-court venture. The billionaire business mogul ventured into the podcasting world with the release of his new podcast, Mind The Game, along with JJ Redick. The new show debuted on Tuesday with the first episode about what makes a great basketball player.

King James has somehow managed to build multiple businesses and give time to his family while still being one of the best players in the NBA at age 39. LeBron is setting a new benchmark for the athletes of today’s generation by showing how a superstar can thrive on and off the court.
LeBron James still has business left on the court
After some quality time with his family, LeBron will probably be back on the court this Friday. He is gunning for his 5th Championship this season. But the Lakers are far from being title contenders. They are stuck at the 9th spot in the Western Conference standings, hoping to move up the rankings. And it is up to LeBron James and Anthony Davis to help the Lakers win in the remaining 13 regular season games. LeBron is playing at a high level even at age 39, averaging 25.4 points, 8.1 assists, and 7.2 rebounds.

Unfortunately, he has been playing through an injury for many weeks. LeBron has been in and out of the lineup recently due to left ankle peroneal tendinopathy. Although it is uncertain if LeBron will suit up this Friday, he is likely to play as he will be well rested after the 3-day break. If the Lakers want to get into the playoffs and make a run for the title, they need LeBron to be healthy and available for the rest of the season.
