Last night we witnessed one more edition of the NBA All-Star Gamewere more than 18,000 aficionados present in the Vivint Smart Home ArenaHouse of Utah Jazz.
The team led by Giannis Antetokounmpo defeated 184-175 Team LeBron James; so it was the first time that a team captained by the Kinglost in a stars game.
The Lakers player could only see action for 14 minutes during the first two periods, in which he added 13 points; but already for the second half he did not jump on the court for a hand injury.
Despite the short time he played, he again gave something to talk about, since during a routine play he exchanged a couple of words with two old acquaintances: Carmelo Anthony y Dwyane Wadebut he completely forgot he was wearing a microphone.
And that dialogue was a revelation about his retirement:
“I have to slow down. There are only a couple more years left.”were the words of LeBron James.
Will he comply? He still has a current contract with the Los Angeles Lakers.
The last renewal of King James with the Lakers it was for two years, in exchange for 85.6 million dollars; for which he is linked until the end of the 2024-25 season; opening the door to a possible retirement with the Lakers.
