I don't believe he'll finish his career with the Lakers - Marc Stein on LeBron

There's a lot of discussion surrounding LeBron James and what the "King" will do with his career.

All signs point to LeBron continuing his career with the Lakers this year, but Marc Stein believes he won't finish his career in Los Angeles.

Stein said, "I don't believe this will be his last year. It's something only he knows, but I think he'll announce when his final season will be before it begins. Based on that, I fully expect him to retire in a jersey that isn't purple and gold. It's clear the Lakers have moved into the Luka Dončić era."

LeBron Raymone James Sr., widely regarded as one of the greatest basketball players of all time, has carved an unparalleled legacy in the National Basketball Association (NBA) over more than two decades.

Born on December 30, 1984, in Akron, Ohio, James's journey from a high school phenom to a global icon is a testament to his extraordinary talent, dedication, and influence both on and off the court.

Early Life and High School Stardom: Raised by his mother, Gloria James, LeBron faced early challenges but found stability and purpose through basketball.

His exceptional athletic ability was evident from a young age, and he quickly became a national sensation at St. Vincent-St. Mary High School in Akron.

He led his team to three Ohio state championships, earning him the title of "Mr. Basketball" of Ohio three times and appearing on the cover of Sports Illustrated as "The Chosen One" even before his professional debut.
