LeBron misses game with back spasms
Mar 14, 2007, 1:00 GMT
Cleveland, OH - The Cleveland Cavaliers took the court Tuesday night against the Sacramento Kings without superstar forward LeBron James, who sat due to back spasms.
His supporting cast rose to the occasion, and the Cavs routed the Kings, 124-100, for Cleveland's sixth straight win.
This is the first game James has missed since January, when he sat out two games with a sprained right big toe. He will travel with the team to Memphis on Wednesday, where he will be re-evaluated prior to Cleveland's game against the Grizzlies Wednesday night.
James is averaging 27.4 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 5.9 assists per game this season.
