It appears that LeBron James’ time with the LA Lakers could be coming to an end.
Earlier this week, LeBron struggled to score 10 points during the team’s blowout loss to the Suns.

In a recent report on Bleacher Report, Eric Pincus states that there’s buzz around the league suggesting this could be LeBron’s final season in LA.

While general manager Rob Pelinka said before the season that he’d like James to retire with the Lakers, the buzz around the NBA is that this will be his final season in Los Angeles (whether he decides to continue playing or call it a career).
ESPN’s Brian Windhorst spoke with Dan Patrick and said he’s not sure if LeBron will play another season after hitting a wall this year.
I don’t think anybody knows. He’s going through this day to day, trying to figure it out.
Now I’m just in the middle of I don’t know. And LeBron has said the same thing. Rich Paul has said I don’t know, because I thought this guy could Tom Brady it, like I mean. And he still could Tom Brady yet, but if you watched him play last year, there’s no way that’s a guy who is about to retire…

Considering how bad LeBron has been playing this season, it wouldn’t be a surprise if he retired.
