LeBron James’ post-game interview after his recent playoff elimination sent shockwaves in the NBA community. It fueled speculations about his career threshold moment. The Lakers legend’s ‘post-career’ plans with his wife Savannah only made his futuristic plans clear.

So, by the looks of it, LBJ may be looking forward to his retirement after all, given how much he has put in during the last 20 years in the league.
