LeBron James has officially signed a two-year contract with the Los Angeles Lakers this offseason, marking a significant moment in his illustrious career. With this new deal in place, conversations about LeBron’s potential retirement have already begun to circulate, especially since he has achieved many of his career aspirations.
Iman Shumpert, a former teammate of James with the Cleveland Cavaliers, recently weighed in on the situation during a one-on-one interview with RG.org. When asked how many more years he believes LeBron has left in him, Shumpert expressed confidence, stating, “I’d say three. I’ll say this—he’s capable of three.”
This season, LeBron’s long-held dream of playing alongside his son, Bronny, is set to become a reality following Bronny’s draft by the Lakers. Shumpert elaborated that after LeBron plays two seasons with Bronny, he may choose to retire. However, he also suggested that if Bronny has an exceptional rookie year in the NBA, LeBron could reconsider and potentially retire earlier than expected.
