There is a biophysical causation from local field potentials to neural spikes
Extensive neurophysiological evidence demonstrates that local field potentials and neural spiking activity are biophysically coupled, with field oscillations frequently constraining, synchronizing, and predicting individual neuronal firing patterns.
The retrieved literature consistently shows a strong biophysical link between local field potentials (LFPs) and neural spiking activity. Studies such as [0], [3], [6], and [9] establish that LFPs reflect synchronized synaptic currents and network oscillations that closely correlate with, constrain, and organize neural firing. There is no evidence refuting a biophysical relationship between LFPs and spikes; hence, the claim is supported.

Demonstrates a strong empirical coupling and predictive correlation between local field potentials, unit firing, and downstream hemodynamic responses.
