LeBron James is nearing the end of his fantastic NBA career. A four-time NBA champion, a four-time NBA Finals MVP, and a four-time NBA MVP. What would be next for The King after retirement? Well, it is very possible that LBJ will own a part of the Boston Celtics. James already owns a part of the Boston Red Sox, and his group is considering making a play at the Celtics.
According to the NY Post, the deal could be a two-parter. 48% of the Boston Celtics would not be sold until 2028, giving LeBron plenty of time to retire and become an owner. Ironically, LBJ’s current team is the Los Angeles Lakers, who have a very long history with the Celtics. The two franchises hate each other, as they have met in the NBA Finals many times.
Lebron James Has Some Time Before Possibly Owning the Boston Celtics
However, LeBron is still on a two-year contract with the Lakers. He also has his son Bronny James in the organization. James has long dreamed of playing with his oldest son in the NBA. Although Bronny will spend most of his time in the NBA’s G-League, he is sure to see some NBA minutes.
LeBron has hinted at retirement many times over the past few years. When it finally happens, there will be a huge hole in all of basketball. James is a once-in-a-lifetime kind of player and it will be a sad day when he calls it quits.
However, despite being 39 years old, LeBron James is still destroying the league. As of right now, he and Team USA are going for gold in the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, France.
An NBA without LeBron James is approaching fast. James is trying to secure his retirement by possibly being a part owner of the Boston Celtics. However, nothing is a done deal just yet. LeBron still has a few years of basketball left in him, after all.
