The Los Angeles Lakers survived a late comeback attempt by the Detroit Pistons Sunday, but the squad had another late scare.

LeBron James went up for a layup late in the fourth quarter and took some contact while finishing the attempt.

He held his abdominal area for a few minutes after the contact. An abdominal injury caused him to miss eight games earlier in the year.

He explained how he feels after the game, via Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet:

“Yeah, I’ll be alright,” James said. “It’s my third game back since the injury, so just every game it’s getting better and better, but every now and then I can feel a little bit down there. But it didn’t linger too much. That’s a good thing.”

James then said during his postgame conference he would be ready to play Tuesday against the Sacramento Kings.
