Three-time MVP LeBron James, who missed some time at the end of NBA Playoff Game 4 due to leg cramps, plans to play in Game 5, according to an interview on the NBA’s website.
“I feel a lot better than I did last night,” said James who still led the team with 26 points, 12 assists, and 9 rebounds while playing 44 minutes in the Heat’s 104–98 win. “I should be fine be tomorrow night.”
The Heat, which now leads the series three games to one, will need all they can get from the reigning MVP. All three of Miami’s wins in this set have been by single digits and should the Thunder steal Thursday’s Game 5 from the Heat, the series will shift back to Oklahoma City for the remainder.
James seems determined to not let that happen. “I have a job to do and my job is not done.”
