LeBron James will play in New Orleans tonight, Lakers coach Frank Vogel says.
Brandon Ingram is expected to play for the Pelicans but likely on a minutes restriction, while CJ McCollum is a game-time decision.

Bulls and Cavs tonight in Cleveland, Chicago with a 1-game lead over Cavs for 5th in East. DeMar DeRozan, Alex Caruso are probable to play. Kevin Love’s next 3-pointer will give him 1,000 with Cleveland. LeBron is the only other player to do it. – 6:01 PM
