LeBron James will sit out Friday's game because of the ongoing left ankle issue that has kept him on the injury report for the bulk of his 21st season. James said his ankle had been feeling fine until he needed to leave in the fourth quarter of the game Wednesday against Sacramento. The Bucks have listed Giannis Antetokounmpo as probable, while Damian Lillard is questionable because of a rib injury. Khris Middleton (left ankle) is out. In his last seven games, James averaged 28.4 points, 9.7 assists and 6.3 rebounds while shooting 58.1% from the field and 47.4% on 3-pointers.
