LOS ANGELES — LeBron James sat out the Los Angeles Lakers' 107-98 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday due to left foot soreness, the NBA career scoring leader's first missed game of the season. The 39-year-old James had been upgraded to probable early Sunday before being downgraded to doubtful less than two hours before tipoff. He officially was ruled out about 30 minutes before gametime. James has played in the Lakers' first 23 games of the season, averaging 23.0 points with 9.1 assists and 8.0 rebounds.
