LeBron to return against Knicks

LeBron James is set to make his first appearance at Madison Square Garden as a Los Angeles Lakers player on Sunday.

James will suit up against the New York Knicks after being rested for a 111-97 defeat to the Detroit Pistons on Friday.

Josh Hart also comes back into the Lakers side as they attempt to avoid a third consecutive defeat.

The struggling Lakers are 31-38 and 11th in the Western Conference, while the Knicks are 13-56 in a poor season for both teams.
