Lebron James will first clear up with himself
NBA League star Lebron James After Los Angeles Lakers, in the first round of the playoffs, he said he had no answer to the question if he would continue his sports career. The 40 -year -old played the twenty -two season, which ended after defeat against Minnesota Timberwolves in the fifth game.
James signed a new two -year contract with Lakers in July last year, totaling $ 100 million, of which he would receive $ 52 million next season, according to French news agency AFP.
“I will talk to my wife, with my family, and I have to clarify myself if I want to continue. We will see, « he told reporters after the match. In the fifth game he scored 22 points and was the third scorer of his team for Luke Doncic (28) and Rui hachimuro (23).
« Since my first finals in the NBA in 2007, every season I didn’t play in the finals has been a disappointment for me, » said the four -time league champion. He last played in the finals in 2020, when Lakers won the championship for the eighteenth time.
Los Angeles team sent its center to Dallas Mavericks in February Anthony Davis in exchange for Luka Doncic.
“Whenever the team makes such a move in the middle of the season, this is a big challenge. The entire team dynamics have changed. Some matches were not good, but we somehow managed to adapt. However, I think we ran out of time to be really right, « James said. He left the press conference after the match because of his knee injury, which he suffered in the last quarter of the fifth match with Minnesota.
