"I've done some pretty cool things in my career. I've never had 20 and 20 before," James said. "So, that's pretty cool, I guess."

Lakers coach Darvin Ham said Tuesday that the uncertainty of Morant's status won't hinder his club's preparations.
"I mean, we just prepare as if he's playing," Ham said. "We don't try to assume anything or try to make any predictions. We just make sure we cover Plan A, Plan B. Plan A, he plays. Plan B, what type of adjustments they'll make."
LA won big against the Grizzlies in Game 1, 128-112.
