The four-time NBA MVP suffered a groin injury against the Warriors on Christmas Day and missed 17 games of the regular season.

James was shut down for the season following a victory over the Charlotte Hornets at the end of March.

He will be preserved until next season after the Lakers were officially ruled out of play-off contention.

The Oakland-based team have clinched the Pacific Division and can secure the Western Conference title with three wins from their last five games.
