The future of Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James in the NBA has been the subject of much speculation in recent months. Recently, ESPN insider Shams Charania shared his thoughts on the potential retirement of the legendary player.
Although the prospect of playing alongside his son Bronny James is exciting, LeBron may still decide to retire after next season. With a career defined by countless accolades and unmatched success, his final decision is poised to significantly impact the future of the NBA.
According to Charania, LeBron, who turns 40 in December, might view next season as his last in the league. The journalist also suggested that the possibility of playing alongside his son, Bronny James, could play a key role in his final decision.
“[LeBron James] is going to be 40 years old next month,” Charania said. “My sense is next season could potentially be his last season in the NBA. Maybe Bryce James keeps him around an extra year or two.”
