Following a disappointing NBA regular season, change is in the air for the Los Angeles Lakers. The organization has already started revamping as they parted ways with head coach Frank Vogel. Since securing a title in the bubble, it has been a downward slope for one of the league’s most historic franchises.
Depending on how LA is able to retool, LeBron James’ days with the Lakers could be numbered. He proved this season he still has something left in the tank, and the current outlook of the franchise doesn’t bode well for his chances of competing for championships.
Currently, James is only under contract for one more season. We’ve seen him change teams on multiple occasions, and the future Hall of Famer could be on the move again. After being one of the biggest surprises this season, some have speculated on the idea of James returning to the Cleveland Cavaliers for one more run.
As the last remaining member of the Cavs’ championship team, Kevin Love was recently asked about the idea of reuniting with James in Cleveland. He feels it would be a “storybook ending” to James’ historic career and even brought up the idea of his son joining him.

LeBron “Bronny” James Jr. is a senior at Sierra Canyon High School and will likely be drafted the same summer his father enters free agency.
From a story perspective, there are few better ways for James to ride off into the sunset. Not only would he play his final games for his hometown team, but pass the torch to his first-born son in the place it all began. Not to mention the Cavaliers are on the rise and are sure to be a competitive team for years to come.
