Doctor: James injury must be related to his offseason golfing, which is very demanding on the spine.

October 10th Today, the Lakers officially announced that forward James will undergo re-examination in about 3 to 4 weeks due to right sciatica.

ESPNLA radio station immediately invited sports medicine expert Dr. Alan Beyer to analyze James' injury.

When asked whether James' injury was related to frequent golfing during the offseason, Dr. Beyer said: "Of course. Golf is considered to be one of the sports with higher demands on the spine, because the spine is not naturally adapted to the degree of spinal torsion required by the golf swing. This may have something to do with LeBron. He started having back problems after he started playing golf. Obviously, he wasn't fully engaged in training camp, so it probably had something to do with his offseason activities.

"But you can't ask a guy to live in a bubble his whole life and not let him do things that are fun. If LeBron chooses to do this after 23 years of dedicated basketball, so be it. He's going to recover from it, and he's not like Tiger Woods who hits 1,000 golf balls a day, so he's going to go out and play some golf for fun. Yeah, that might have some impact on his lower back. "

"In three or four weeks, when he comes back, this injury may come back again. So he probably won't be able to play golf during the season, otherwise I think it would be too risky for him. This injury may develop into a chronic and lasting injury. ” said Dr. Beyer.
