The Los Angeles Lakers suffered a huge blow this weekend when LeBron James got hurt in a meaningless game against the Atlanta Hawks.
Between how competitive the middle of the Western Conference is this year, and Monday’s revelation of how long James would be out for with his high ankle sprain, the defending champs might be in trouble.
Fortunately, a potential solution has emerged.
This past weekend, a video showcasing the skills of LeBarn James went viral.

LeBarn James, also known as Will Hartzell, has actually been a notable character on Instagram for a while now.

For whatever reason though his fame reached new levels this past weekend.
Given that the Lakers are very shorthanded now between James’ injury and the bad news they just got regarding Anthony Davis’ recovery, LeBarn James may not be too bad of an option.
