LeBron James says the wildfires that have killed at least 25 people and destroyed thousands of homes have taken a toll on his mental health. “I have a couple of dear friends that have lost their homes in the Palisades,” James said. The fires have disrupted the Lakers’ schedule, with the team forced into a six-day layoff before resuming play on Monday, while the team’s coach, JJ Redick, lost his home to the fires.
