According to reports, Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James has entered health and safety protocol after testing positive for COVID-19. This is unwelcome news for the Lakers who've been struggling all season but the few bright spots came during games when LeBron played. He was recently sidelined with an abdominal injury and is now set to be out for several games.
Per TMZ:
"LeBron James tested positive for COVID-19 this afternoon using a lateral flow test. James was given a follow-up PCR test to confirm the diagnosis. However, that test came back negative. LeBron was then given a third tie-breaker test ... which came back positive."
LeBron is currently asymptomatic and is fully vaccinated which is supposed to mitigate the symptoms and lower the risk of hospitalization.
