James won a title with the Lakers in 2020 … which the team noted was “under the toughest imaginable circumstances” in the NBA bubble.
He also became the league’s all-time leading scorer while rocking a Laker jersey … so his presence is forever etched in franchise history.
James didn’t drop any hints about his next — and possibly final — destination … just a lot of love for his former employer.
For now, the NBA world waits on pins and needles.
