INDEPENDENCE, Ohio (AP) — Cavaliers star LeBron James is showing no signs of being bothered by a right elbow injury while attempting shots during practice.
James has a strain and bone bruise on his right elbow, which has been hurting him for weeks. He wore a protective sleeve on his arm Friday during Cleveland’s preparations for Saturday’s series opener against the Boston Celtics.
Cavs coach Mike Brown said James was not limited in practice, but that his team did not have any contact drills.
James shot midrange jumpers and free throws with his right hand during the portion of Cleveland’s workout that was open to the media.
James is scheduled to have a follow-up MRI on the injury next week.
