LeBron James nach Lakers-Aus über Zukunft: "Muss über viel nachdenken" |  STERN.de

In 21 career seasons, LeBron James has broken numerous records but also and above all won four championship titles. Some might think that his ambition is to win more to further grow his legend, but that would not be the case according to a veteran of the league.

At 39 years old, LeBron James is inevitably closer to the end than the beginning of his career. Even if he continues to shatter records in the Lakers jersey, his retirement date is getting closer and closer.

Before that fateful day takes place, it might seem like the King is in pursuit of a new ring. Often compared to Michael Jordan (6 titles), he could thus catch up with him even though he has 4.

The four-time champion would also have one more argument for his fans in the GOAT debate. Because if some consider him the greatest player in history for his longevity, others refute this opinion because his number of titles won is lower than that of His Airness.

However, this obstinacy for conquering a new trophy no longer exists among the Chosen One according to Jeff Teague, as heard in his podcast.

Lebron ? He doesn’t care about titles. I think he will go where his son goes.

The reason that pushes Jeff Teague to think that LeBron no longer has his mind on his record is none other than the potential arrival of Bronny James in the league.

A few days ago, the latter declared himself eligible for the 2024 Draft. This is news that created a real earthquake on the basketball planet.

Playing with Bronny, more important than a 5th title for LeBron?
And in the event that the nugget is chosen by a franchise, which would also be other than that of the Lakers, the ex-Hawks player would bet a coin on the arrival of the winger in the same team as his son.

But the 19-year-old leader still needs to be selected. Because nothing is less certain regarding this possibility, even if the former All-Star is not too worried about this point.

I don’t think he’s a player made for college basketball. He’s a pro. I don’t think his abilities match up with the NCAA. To shine when you’re in college, you have to score baskets, but he’s not someone who’s going to score a lot.

 

He knows how to pass, defend, also score baskets, but he’s not a guy who will attack you to score a lot. He is a player who complements a team.

If there is a lot of speculation surrounding Bronny’s case, it is quite simply because his NCAA statistics are much lower than expected.

His 4.8 points at 36.6% shooting success, 26.7% three-point shooting, 67.6% free throws as well as 2.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists on average from the bench raise questions. However, his defensive qualities will perhaps allow him to join the NBA, and why not his father.

A few days ago, Bronny James declared himself eligible for the 2024 draft. This is news that caused strong reactions, because everyone is now wondering which team will choose him.

And according to Jeff Teague, no matter which franchise makes the prospect a rookie, LeBron James will join it without hesitation.
