It seems LeBron James will stay in Los Angeles, but the Lakers likely won’t get a definite answer until we’re further into the offseason.
With the Lakers done playing basketball, all eyes are focused on how the team will improve during the offseason.
While improvements can come from upgrades at certain roster spots, one key is keeping what works, particularly your stars like LeBron James.
With James under contract but holding a player option for next season, it’s been reported that he will decline that option and become a free agent this summer.
Before Lakers fans panic about not having the King in Los Angeles, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN spoke during a segment on NBA Today about the most likely scenario being LeBron staying with the Lakers.
