LeBron James confirms 21st NBA season despite considering retirement

Posted : 13 July 2023
LeBron James, the NBA superstar, has confirmed that he will continue playing basketball for at least another season. After the Los Angeles Lakers were eliminated from the playoffs by the Denver Nuggets, James openly contemplated retirement but has now decided to enter his 21st season in the league.

He joins a select group of players, including Dirk Nowitzki, Kevin Garnett, Robert Parish, Kevin Willis, and Vince Carter, who hold the distinction of playing 21 seasons or more.

During his acceptance speech for the ESPY award for Best Record-Breaking Performance, James expressed his unwavering commitment to the game and stated that he would retire only when he feels unable to give his all on the court.
 
James's dedication to basketball was evident as he spoke about his love for the game and how his children have fueled his passion. His son, Bronny, will begin his basketball career as a freshman at the University of Southern California, while his other son, Bryce, will play his junior season at Campbell Hall High School.

James coached Bryce's AAU team recently, showcasing his enthusiasm and energy, even in a high school game. He emphasized that he has never cheated the game throughout his 20-year career and expressed gratitude for the fans' support.
 
During his speech, James acknowledged the love and respect he receives from fans, regardless of whether they love or hate him. He expressed his deep appreciation for the game, his teammates, and the great players who came before him.

James reflected on his mindset after the Lakers' playoff exit and explained that he has been privately contemplating his future in the NBA for the past couple of years but had not publicly addressed it until now.

He concluded by stating that watching and coaching his sons and their teammates rejuvenates his passion for the game, and he assured everyone that he still has much to offer as a player.
 
LeBron James's decision to continue playing basketball for at least another season brings relief to fans and showcases his enduring love and dedication to the sport.
