Needless to say, when he is ready to return, James will be the one to say it. &#8220;There wasn’t an evaluation today and there hasn’t been any target date for my return,&#8221; LeBron said. &#8220;I’m just working around the clock, every day (3X a day) to give myself to best chance of coming back full strength whenever that is. God bless y’all sources. I speak for myself!&#8221; It is a very strong message that has Lakers fans in shambles right now. </p>
