LeBron James appears to have addressed lingering questions about his immediate NBA future in a recent Instagram post.

The son of LeBron James is preparing for his second pro season after an up-and-down debut in 2024–25.

No, LeBron James did not give any kind of ultimatum about his rating for NBA 2K26. The parody account NBA Centel posted that James wouldn't appear in the game unless he has a 99 overall rating. The post, seen by hundreds of thousands of people, isn't true.

LeBron James is again at the center of conversation for his offseason training location. The NBA Veteran was recently working out at the old Los Angeles Clippers practice facility. He wore plain Nike gear instead of his usual Lakers attire.

Lakers guard Bronny James opens up about playing alongside his father LeBron James for the first time and what it really means.

With that being said, the Knicks have come up as a potential suitor for LeBron James. As his situation with the Los Angeles Lakers seemingly continues to sour, James has been rumored to be a potential trade candidate this year or at least a free agency option next offseason. New York has been rumored as a potential fit for James down the road.

According to Marc Stein, the Lakers have a clear plan for what they want to do with LeBron James past the 2025-26 season.
