LeBron James (ankle) ruled out Tuesday for Lakers
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday versus the Phoenix Suns.
James missed three of the last four contests, and even though the Lakers are on the verge of elimination from playoff contention, he will remain out Tuesday. Malik Monk will likely draw another start in place of James. Anthony Davis (foot) is still listed as questionable for the Lakers.
Monk scored 18.6 FanDuel points in 33.2 minutes as a starter last game. He has a $6,300 salary on Tuesday's 12-game slate. Davis is averaging 50.7 FanDuel points per game without LeBron this season, compared to 46.1 when they are both active.
