LeBron James addresses retirement speculation

James has consistently refused to offer any clues as to whether this could be his final NBA season. More recent claims have suggested that next year could function as a retirement tour for him, albeit with a different organization.

James continues to play at a reasonably high level, so if he calls it quits, it is unlikely to be for performance-related reasons. The 41-year-old is averaging 22 points, 7.1 assists, and 5.8 rebounds per game so far this season. He became the oldest player in NBA history to notch a triple-double on Thursday night.
