Distributing jokes and laughs, LeBron James wrapped the Los Angeles Lakers uniform at the beginning of this week in the presentation of his 23 season at the NBA, in which he did not give any track of his retreat plans.
“I don't know when the end will be, but I know it is much sooner rather than later,” he just said the maximum historical scorer of the NBA on the day of the media care of the Lakers.
King James will begin on October 21 its twenty season, another record that sets in the American basketball league, surrounded by enormous uncertainty about its future.
Last June, after another bitter elimination in playoffs, LeBron executed his option to renew for a year instead of signing a new contract with the Lakers.
This situation unleashed speculations about the possibility of requesting the transfer to another team, which could give him more options to fight for his fifth ring, or who marked at the end of the season as a free agent.
“I am supercompromised,” James replied on Monday at the franchise facilities in the second, south of Los Angeles.
“I am excited for today, I am excited about the opportunity to play the sport I love for another season,” he said.
Share with Doncic
LeBron, who will share costumes again with his son Bronny, rejected in any case that has the project to remain active until an eventual arrival at the league of his other rod, Bryce.
“I am not waiting for Bryce,” he said about his 18 -year -old son, that this course will debut in university basketball with the Arizona Wildcats.
“We will see what happens this year or next. He has his schedule, I have mine, and I don't know if they agree at all,” he said.
Among the factors that continue to drive him, LeBron cited the illusion that makes him prepare for his first complete campaign with Luka Doncic, possibly the greatest caliber star he has had by his side.
“It's supermotivator,” he said. “I will try to be the best player I can for him. We are going to support each other.”
In their first playoffs together, James and Doncic were overwhelmed by the Minnesota Timberwolves 4-1.
The Slovenian had landed a few months before in Los Angeles in a transfer from the Dallas Mavericks that shocked the NBA and the base itself.
“It's easier now, I went through many things last year … It is a new beginning for me, now I am in a better place,” said Doncic, physically transformed from the defeat into the playoffs.
“When the season ended I started training immediately,” he recalled. “I really want to start, I feel very well and very prepared for this season.”
