Shams revealed on the show that the Lakers plan to have LeBron James back in mid-November.

Shams said, "As far as I know, the Lakers and LeBron himself think that mid-November is a more realistic time to come back, so October 30th is the earliest time for the Lakers to re-evaluate him. However, it is expected that LeBron will need a few more weeks to return to action after that point in time."

"Sources tell me LeBron will take a patient and cautious approach to his sciatica."
