On May 15, the Timberwolves defeated the Warriors 121-110 and advanced to the Western Final. At this point, Zhan, Du, Ku, Ka and Deng were all eliminated, and the era of Ragnarok was approaching.
James, the Lord of Gods, is waiting for his career decisions throughout the NBA. For many years, James has been hinting that he may retire after finishing his playoff journey, and fans are also preparing for that moment. However, the 40-year-old James has sent away a group of veterans, but he can always create surprises in the new season. Similarly, after losing to the Timberwolves, James also made similar negative remarks, which made the fans feel worried, but the latest news shows that James plans to stay in the team this summer and re-sign a $105 million contract.
Recently, Lakers' team reporter Jovan Buha answered the fans' questions on his personal podcast program. Speaking of James, Buha said: "I am sure LeBron (James) will return next season. As far as I know, he will choose to jump out of his contract and become a free agent in order to re-sign a two-year, worth $105 million and extend to 2027."
2-year, $105 million renewal, and failed to retire, James has to take control of his future!
For the past 22 years, James has been dominating the league. His NBA career has reached an unprecedented height. He also competed with his eldest son Brownie last season to create history. He himself doesn't need to prove anything anymore. Even if James retires now, there is no regret. What's more, the Lakers unexpectedly won Doncic this season, and 077 is definitely James' best successor.
The most important reason why James chose to stay in the Lakers is that he is eager to play with his youngest son Bryce James and achieve the feat of the father and son playing in the same game.
Previously, Shams, a famous reporter, talked about James' future when participating in PatMcAfeeShow. Shams said: "James is eager to play with his youngest son Bryce James. Bryce will be qualified for the NBA draft in 2026. The Lakers can do their best to arrange it to let him be in Los Angeles with his brother and father. This is an important variable to extend James' career."
James had high hopes for Bryce. He once shared privately: "The talent shown by Bryce reminds me of Kobe when he was young." Compared to Brownie, Bryce has better physical talent, and his bounce and arm span exceeds his brother. In March this year, Bryce led the team to win the interstate championship, and James also went to watch the game on site and celebrated excitedly.
The Lakers will certainly not be stingy with the second round pick and repeat the "Brownny Strategy". "James Lakers" will not only become a historic moment in the league, but will also bring huge business effects to the Lakers.
