LeBron James won’t play in Sunday’s NBA All-Star tournament.
The Lakers star announced Sunday afternoon that he’s dealing with ankle soreness and will sit out. James has been selected as an All-Star starter in each of his NBA seasons since his second in the league in 2004-05. His absence on Sunday will break a streak of 20 consecutive All-Star starts.
James was present at the All-Star site in San Francisco when he announced his status to reporters.
