James suffered the injury in the Lakers' 127-101 blowout win against the Warriors on Tuesday.
Los Angeles lost to Sacramento 117-116 at the buzzer in its first game without James on Thursday. The Lakers' young core will have to step up against a rowdy Clippers team to get a better result without James and Rajon Rondo, who is expected to miss a month with a finger injury.
No clear timetable has been set for James' return.
