- 39-year-old expected to re-up on a two year contract
- Lakers drafted LeBron’s son, Bronny James, last week
LeBron James is making it official: He’s coming back for a record-tying 22nd season in the NBA, one where the league’s all-time scoring leader could share the floor with his son Bronny as teammates with the Los Angeles Lakers.
James has agreed to a two-year contract to remain with the Lakers, a person with knowledge of the negotiations said on Wednesday. The second year of the deal is a player option and means James could become a free agent again next summer, said the person, who spoke to the Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the agreement had not been announced publicly. The deal is also expected to include a no-trade clause.
