Despite LeBron James seemingly teasing a possible retirement this offseason shortly after his Los Angeles Lakers were swept out of the playoffs, virtually everyone expects him back this fall for his 21st season.
According to pundits, James said he has “a lot to think about” when it comes to him “moving forward with the game of basketball” because (take your pick) he was tired after a long season, he was frustrated about getting swept in the Western Conference finals or because he was passive-aggressively pressuring the Lakers to upgrade the roster.
