LeBron James Reveals If He's Postponing Retirement for Son Bryce James to Join NBA
LeBron James, entering his 23rd NBA season, prioritizes winning a championship with the Lakers and acknowledges Bryce James has a separate path to the NBA, distinct from Bronny's journey.
- On Monday, LeBron James said `No, I'm not waiting on Bryce` at the Lakers media day in El Segundo and will open his 23rd NBA season on Oct. 21 against Golden State.
- Bryce James is headed to Arizona next season as a University of Arizona freshman, and LeBron said each son 'has his own timeline' that may not align.
- He comes off a season in which he averaged 24.4 points, 8.2 assists and 7.8 rebounds while playing in 70 games and was named to the All-NBA second team last year.
- After picking up his $52.6 million player option, Rich Paul said LeBron wants to compete for a championship while the Los Angeles Lakers added Deandre Ayton and Marcus Smart.
- Without a player option for 2026, LeBron James said he will be an unrestricted free agent next summer, while Lakers extended Luka Doncic for three years to signal a generational shift.
