The Los Angeles Lakers have had some serious struggles through the first half of the 2023-24 NBA season. After starting with a respectable 15-10 record through the first 25 games, LeBron James and company dropped 9 out of 11 between December 15th and January 5th.

As the 39-year-old superstar tends to do on a semiregular basis, James sent out a cryptic tweet on Tuesday, which was simply an emoji of an hourglass, perhaps representing that something, or someone, was running out of time.
