LeBron James’ Los Angeles Lakers have endured a very poor season. Reaching far below their expectations, the franchise finds itself in 9th place in the Western Conference with a 31-41 record. Regardless of LeBron breaking multiple records this season, there has not been much celebration mostly due to where the Lakers stand. At present, they rely majorly on the ‘King’ to carry them to victory every time.
