LeBron James is heading toward a repeat of a path that may not be worth taking again. The NBA all-time great has one son in the NBA, Bronny, who spent one year at USC before being the No. 55 pick in last year's NBA Draft.

According to Shams Charania of ESPN, Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James is expected to play next season. The four-time MVP and four-time Finals MVP is expected to pick up his 2025-26 player option with the Lakers, who lost to the Minnesota Timberwolves in the first round of this year's playoffs in five games.

At the end of another failed season, questions are circulating regarding the future of NBA legend LeBron James. At 40 years old, LeBron is closer than ever to retirement, but the latest update from Shams Charania says that he intends to stick around for at least one more season.
