Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James is ready to return to his team's lineup for Friday's game against Philadelphia after missing two games because of an ankle injury, the league MVP said on Thursday.
James twisted his right ankle during a game last week against Detroit. While the injury was not considered serious -- James said he could have played if it was the playoffs -- the team let him recover.
"I'm always a guy who wants to play every game, but I think now looking back it was definitely the right decision to give the injuries that I had some rest," James told reporters after the team''s practice. "I'm very excited. It's going to be a good, fun night."
