Clippers guard Ben Simmons has been downgraded to questionable with left knee soreness. Simmons entered the day as not on the injury report, but his status now comes into question. Simmons started the season with the Brooklyn Nets but was bought out of his expiring contract after the trade deadline and joined the Clippers.

The Los Angeles Lakers defeated the LA Clippers, but LeBron James only saw Ben Simmons on his new team once before playing him.

LeBron James may not have scored the 18 points he needed on Sunday night to become the first player in NBA history to score 50,000 career points, but he did help the Los Angeles Lakers pick up a 108-102 victory over the LosAngeles Clippers. After the game, James weighed in on one of the Clippers' newest players, Ben Simmons.
