James back, leads Cavs to win
Posted February 02, 2008 10:00 pm
LeBron James scored 28 points after missing a game with a sprained right ankle, leading the Cleveland Cavaliers to a 98-84 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Saturday night.
James missed Cleveland's 101-95 loss in Seattle on Thursday after injuring the ankle the previous night against Portland. The Cavaliers, who are 0-6 without James this season, announced he would start about 45 minutes before the game.
That provided even more bad news for the Clippers, who played their fourth straight game without leading scorers Corey Maggette and Chris Kaman. Both were out with the flu and Los Angeles dressed nine players.
