Breaking: LeBron James Reportedly Informs Lakers He Will Play Elsewhere in 2026-27

June 30, 2026

From NBA.com News Services;

LeBron James reportedly has informed the Los Angeles Lakers that he plans to play for a different team during the 2026-27 season, according to multiple reports citing Klutch Sports CEO Rich Paul.

The move comes after Draymond Green declined his $27.6 million player option, clearing the runway for the Warriors to retain veteran center Kristaps Porzingis on a two-year, $40 million contract extension that includes a second-year player option.

Since joining the Lakers as a free agent in 2018, James has spent the last eight seasons rewriting the record books in Los Angeles. Now the NBA’s all-time leader in points, minutes, games, and seasons played, he averaged 25.9 points, 7.9 assists, and 7.7 rebounds across 479 regular-season appearances with the franchise. His tenure is highlighted by a 2020 championship run, where he captured Finals MVP honors while guiding the Lakers to their 17th title.

With Porzingis locked in, the Warriors are still expected to make a move to acquire LeBron’s former Lakers teammate, Anthony Davis, from the Wizards.

Team USA routed Serbia in their first group game at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Kevin Durant delivered a near-flawless performance with 23 points, shooting 8-of-9 from the field, including a perfect 3-for-3 from beyond the arc. LeBron James added 21 points, 7 rebounds, and 9 assists.

It was a basketball clinic by the Americans, firing on all cylinders. Offensively, they shot 62% from the field, made more than half of their 3-point attempts, and tallied 24 assists. On the defensive end, Team USA recorded 3 blocks, 9 steals, and 39 rebounds. The team also forced Serbia into 13 turnovers, converting 25 points from those turnovers.

Nikola Jokic led Serbia with 20 points, 5 rebounds, and 8 assists. Bogdan Bogdanovic added 14 points and 6 rebounds. Serbia kept the game close in the first half, but the Americans pulled away when Serbia’s outside shooting cooled down. They made only 9 of their 37 attempts from beyond the arc.

Team USA will have a rematch with South Sudan, while Serbia will face Puerto Rico on July 31st.

In a post game interview, James said that the post was to “psych” himself out. I guess, without the post game interview explanation,its a little weird for someone with Lebron’s status to congratulate himself. 🙂

Lebron James will join Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (38,387 points), Karl Malone (36,928), Kobe Bryant (33,643), Michael Jordan (32,292), Wilt Chamberlain (31,419) and Dirk Nowitzki (30,808). James is the youngest to reach the mark.
