"They've been participating heavily in practice and they're going to sit these two first preseason games out and hopefully play in the final two preseason games," Vogel told reporters. "Play some in Game 3 and more in Game 4 to get as close as possible to a dress rehearsal for the regular season."
While James and Davis don't necessarily need preseason reps, it could come in handy to get into a flow with new teammates Montrezl Harrell and Dennis Schroder while allowing Vogel to settle his rotation. The two stars have been understandably cautious, wanting to feel rested enough after the quick turnaround between the NBA Finals and start of the 2020-21 season.
James admitted he only touched a basketball twice during the offseason as he recuperated from the bubble experience.
