As per Windhorst, James is now looking for a nine-figure multi-year
deal with Lakers in the off-season. However, it will be interesting to see whether
the franchise will be eager to give such a deal considering he will become 40 very
soon.
“I don’t think this is LeBron’s last stand,” said Windhorst.
“I don’t think this is the Lakers last stand. First off, I think LeBron is
angling to sign a multiyear deal in the offseason with the Lakers that will be
nine figures. That will be even bigger than the deal he is on now.

“Now, whether or not he’s able to finish that deal, whether
or not the Lakers want to give him a three-year contract and pay him $60
million when he’s 42 years old, that’s a different discussion.”
James is having a fabulous season for the Lakers where he is
averaging 24.8 points, 7.2 rebounds and 7.8 assists per game.
His best outing for the Lakers this season came in the match
against the Oklahoma City Thunder where he registered 40 points to go with seven
rebounds and seven assists.
