It goes without saying that hopefully this is not as bad as LeBron appears to initially believe.

UPDATE: The Lakers have announced that LeBron has a strained left groin and is questionable to return to this game.

UPDATE II: LeBron James will not return to this evening’s game.

UPDATE III: Exhale.

Yahoo Sources: An initial exam on LeBron James reveals all is intact and that it’s a slight groin strain. It could have been worse.
