Although LeBron hinted towards retirement following WCF upset, he has not given up yet. King James has repeatedly stated that his goal is to play alongside his son Bronny James. This is one of the reasons why he tries to maintain his body in top shape, even as a 38-year-old athlete.
Bronny has recently committed to USC’s basketball team. He will enter the 2024 NBA Draft and is projected as a 17th overall pick by Atlanta Hawks. LeBron is well aware of his son’s prospects and hinted at a move to Atlanta if Bronny were to be drafted there.
LeBron James rumors of a move to Dallas are running wild
Since the start of the post-season, there have been rumors circulating about the possibility of James joining the Dallas Mavericks. Analysts and experts such as Skip Bayless, Stephen A. Smith, and Shannon Sharpe have all discussed such a move, which would have LeBron reunite with former Cavs teammate Kyrie Irving. However, there needs to be some benefit for LeBron if he joins the Mavs.
When I asked someone in the know if LeBron & Kyrie in Dallas is likely they looked me in the eye and said “Hell no Scoop!”

Now, LeBron seems quite settled in Los Angeles, with his recent actions hinting at a long-term stay. According to Brandon ‘Scoop B’ Robinson, any potential move would need to be financially advantageous for both LeBron and Dallas owner Mark Cuban. However, many experts believe that LeBron would not consider leaving the Lakers until his son, Bronny James, is drafted into the NBA.
