NBA (DR)

As he turns 40 at the end of the year, LeBron James knows he doesn’t have much time left in the NBA. At least in appearance. A Lakers teammate doesn’t necessarily agree.

Still considered a cyborg in the NBA, LeBron James is getting closer to the end of his career. Every year is important to him, even if he has made no secret of his wish to play with Bronny James. Bad news ? The latter’s arrival could be delayed, since ESPN has just classified him in the 2025 vintage.

LeBron’s teammate talks about his future retirement

Understand by this that Bronny will not be in the NBA straight away, or he would take a hell of a risk. This could force LeBron to delay a little longer, he who has not really shown signs of weakness so far. D’Angelo Russell, for his part, approves. He even believes that the Chosen One can continue like this for a long time, like Tom Brady in the NFL.

D’Angelo Russell on LeBron James:

“Still got some years under his belt. You're seeing Year 21. Might be seeing Year 25.”

D’Angelo Russell on LeBron James : “He still has a few years left in him. You’re looking at year 21. You might see year 25.”

Not sure that James validates such comments, he who has already been talking about retirement with journalists for some time. But if the King feels like continuing, there is no doubt that he could stay in this league for several more seasons. Everything should depend on his feelings.

He playing at least 23 years which is crazy

he will retire when he is 45

For D’Angelo Russell, LeBron James is still far from retirement. 40 years old or not at the end of the year, it is the King who will choose. when to bow out. The later the better…
