LeBron James will not play Tuesday when the Los Angeles Lakers visit Milwaukee due to a sore left groin.

The team announced James would not play in the matchup against the Bucks, and head coach Luke Walton’s rotation could be shortened by additional injuries.

The Lakers ruled out Lance Stephenson — he’s dealing with a toe injury — on Tuesday. Guard Josh Hart is questionable with knee soreness and center Tyson Chandler (neck) is probable.

James is averaging 27.5 points, 8.5 rebounds and 8.0 assists per game this season but has played in only 51 games. He scored 33 points in 35 minutes in a loss to the Knicks on Sunday.
