Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James and longtime business partner Maverick Carter were pictured on a boat with Nikola Jokic's agent, Misko Raznatovic, according to a social media post from Raznatovic. The caption hinted at making plans for the 2026 season, coincidentally when James will be a free agent.
Additionally, James' superstar teammate Luka Doncic has clearly been hitting the gym this offseason. The 26-year-old point guard has a career 28.6 points, 8.6 rebounds, and 8.2 assists per game average over the last seven seasons, but perhaps his new look will help take him to another level.
Finally, in more LeBron news, the King could reportedly announce his retirement in August. A key NBA insider spoke on murmurs he heard that if a retirement were to come, the time to do it would be in August.
