The assessment that the Lebron James likely to retire at the end of next season expressed Sams Harania at ESPN.
The authoritative reporter reported that “… my feeling is that next season might be his last in the NBA. But maybe his son, Bryce, will keep him for 1-2 more years to play together. But maybe next year, with the All Star Game in Los Angeles, it will be a good momentum to stop».
LeBron James is in his 22nd season at NBA and turns 40 on December 30. He looks ageless, averaging 24.3 points, 8.1 rebounds and 9.4 assists this year as the Lakers are 7-4 and sixth in the West.
This year’s contract provides for earnings of 48.7 million dollars, while he retains an option for next season for $52.6 million. Bryce James, 17, is considered far more talented than Brony who is already his father’s Lakers teammate. Bryce will be eligible for the draft and jump to the NBA in 2026.
“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.”
