The NBA realm has always marveled at LeBron James. One for his incredible on-court antics. And next, for his unimaginable physical conditioning. In a league that requires extreme physical fitness, James is still playing like a youngster despite being 40!

The Los Angeles Lakers are set to have a busy offseason, but the biggest question lingering over the franchise is the future of LeBron James. He’s fresh off another All-NBA season, but he’s 40 and has already given 22 years to the NBA.

On Tuesday, James made a major statement about his future with the Lakers and in the NBA while speaking with the Associated Press’ Jonathan Landrum Jr. “I have a lot of time to take care of my injury, my knee, the rest of my body and make sure I’m as close to 100% as possible when training camp begins in late September,” James said.
