INDEPENDENCE, Ohio (AP) -LeBron James is expected to return to the Cleveland Cavaliers’ lineup against the Philadelphia 76ers, while Antawn Jamison remains day to day.
Cleveland coach Mike Brown said on Wednesday that he expects James to play when the Cavaliers visit Philadelphia on Friday.
James has missed two games to rest a tender right ankle he twisted last Friday against Detroit. Brown wanted to use the break in the schedule to allow James to rest.
Jamison missed the fourth quarter of Monday’s win against the Spurs with a sore left knee. An MRI on Tuesday showed no damage, but Jamison says he has a cyst in the knee that periodically fills with fluid.
He will be a game-time decision Friday, but plans to be ready on Sunday when Cleveland hosts Boston.
