James logged no counting stats in one minute during Wednesday's 132-119 loss to San Antonio. James made his fifth straight garbage-time appearance, continuing a season devoid of highlights. At this stage, his name warrants more attention than his on-court play, averaging just 1.9 points in 8.9 minutes per game. Barring multiple injuries to other players, it is unlikely we will see him on a regular basis.

James registered five points (1-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, six assists and one steal over 19 minutes during Monday's 123-115 victory over the Trail Blazers. James once again saw extended run Monday, as Luka Doncic was rested and Austin Reaves (groin) was given a maintenance day. James is shooting 18.2 percent from the field in five appearances, but he has shown promise on the defensive end and as a playmaker.
