LeBron James says he is unsure if he will continue his NBA career next season after the Los Angeles Lakers were knocked out of the first round of the play-offs by the Minnesota Timberwolves.<\/b><\/p>\n

The 40-year-old, in his 22nd season as a professional, was unable to prevent the Timberwolves completing a 4-1 series victory with a 103-96 win in game five at the Crypto.com Arena.<\/p>\n

James, the NBA’s all-time leading scorer, had been hoping to win a fifth championship this season.<\/p>\n

James, who signed a two-year deal with the Lakers in 2024, says he will take time in the off-season to consider his future.<\/p>\n

Asked how many more years he will continue to play, James said: “I don’t know.<\/p>\n

“It’s something that I will sit down with my family, my wife, and my support group and kind of just talk through and see what happens, and just have a conversation with myself on how long I want to continue to play.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
