LeBron James told reporters after the game on Monday night that he will need to take some time to think about his NBA future, sparking early intrigue to the offseason for one of the greatest franchises in sports.
James played in 55 games for the Lakers this season thanks to a foot injury that leaves him awaiting an MRI this week to determine what’s next. James previously said he spoke to the “LeBron James of feet” who said that he would not need surgery on the injured tendon in his foot, but an MRI this week will confirm next steps.
In addition, the uncertainty over the roster construction will likely play a factor into what James will do next season.
