Enters the free agent market LeBron!
As revealed by the leading American network, “ESPN”, James has decided next summer to do the so-called “opt out” of the contract he has with the Lakersbeing free for the first time since 2018, when he left the Cavaliers to finally move to Los Angeles.
After the elimination of the Lakers in the first round of this year’s Playoffs, especially in the way it came (4-1 comfortably for Jokic and his company), it should not be taken for granted that LeBron will remain in the Lakershowever, the fact that he will not activate the extension option of his existing contract (with earnings of $51.4 million), does not mean that he will leave, since he will have the opportunity to renegotiate with them.
Nevertheless, from the moment it happens free agent data will also attract the interest of other teams, while an important role will probably play where his son, Brony James, will end up!
