Before Sunday's game against the Orlando Magic, Ham talked about the team having to play without LeBron.

"What him being out has revealed is that we have a lot of different weapons that are very capable players on both sides of the ball that can help us achieve the goal we're trying to achieve," the specialist said. "When he comes back, he's just going to add to it. You have to stay together. That's the three words I've been saying all year - we have to continuously compete, stay together, and hold ourselves accountable."

Asked to clarify his words on James' comeback, Ham was clear - NBA fans should see LeBron back on the court during the regular season.

"We anticipate him coming back at some point," he told.

James sustained a right foot tendon injury vs the Mavericks, which he played through to finish the game. This season, the superstar forward has been averaging 29.5 points, 8.4 rebounds, and 6.9 assists per game.

The next Lakers game is against the Phoenix Suns Wednesday night.
