It doesn't get brought up a whole lot because LeBron never made a big deal about it in the media. But he did struggle with the injury on his shooting arm prior to his series against the Celtics in 2010. He shot a free throw left handed because the injury was so severe.

2010 and 2011 he struggled with the injury. Larry Bird broke his knuckles his rookie year and said he never was the same shooter again. Both lebron and bird overcame injuries that dampened their shooting abilities throughout their careers.

LeBron and Bird are the toughest athletes we've seen in the sport. (And coincidentally the greatest we've seen)

LeBron had to change his shooting form in 2017 due to his bad elbow. Its safe to assume he's dealt with the injury on and off since 2010.

It is what it is and never gets brought up. But its pretty amazing what he's been able to accomplish with a bad elbow on his shooting arm.

No specific date when he got the injury after all? Was it during the regular season or did it happen after that?
