Buha: Judging from James participation in the discussion, it seems that he is not as engaged as usual.

October 23 News Recently, Lakers reporter Jovan Buha talked about James’ situation with the team.

Buha said: "I don't want to be an amateur psychoanalyst here, so I don't want to speculate too much. But it can be said that the atmosphere in that situation was not good. I don't want to go into this issue deeply, but I do feel that from the performance of him (James) participating in discussions or sitting on the bench, it seems that he is not as engaged as usual."

"You never know if a person is just having a bad day, or if something is going on, and you can't impose your thoughts on others to speculate on how they feel or behave. But from the body language I observed, it's not ideal, and I think it's different from how he's been in the same situation in the past."
