It's a group of players that long for the postseason until it finally arrives. LeBron James is the leader of that group. He has been playing in the NBA for over 20 years and is only focused on winning championships at this point in his career.

James was listed as probable with a left hip flexor strain on the injury report prior to Game 1 on Saturday. He played 36 minutes in the 117-95 loss, scoring 19 points with five rebounds and three assists. Only Austin Reaves and Luka Doncic logged more minutes than the 40-year-old James.
