LeBron James scored the key basket against Jazz

The Los Angeles Lakers secured a spot in the play-in tournament with a win against the Utah Jazz, but the heavy workload required from LeBron James and Anthony Davis, who are both recovering from foot injuries, could affect their availability for the next game against the LA Clippers. James played for 38 minutes, which is the most since his return, and stated that the condition of his foot the next day would determine whether he would play or not.
