LeBron James has officially announced his decision to bring his talent to the renowned brandy brand Hennessy.
Come on, guys, is this whole serious performance really just for advertising purposes?
And how much money did the sponsors offer to make LeBron willing to risk his image by participating?
As expected, LeBron has been so heavily criticized over this matter that he can hardly manage daily life, once again provoking widespread online mockery.
This season is a contract year for LeBron, with a salary of $52.63 million, but the Lakers show little intention to renew his contract and have already confirmed that Doncic is the absolute core of the team. If LeBron doesn’t plan to retire next summer, he might switch teams as a free agent, and returning to the Cavaliers to come back home could be an excellent option.
LeBron will turn 41 by the end of this year, yet he still maintains impressive competitiveness. Last season’s regular season stats averaged 24.4 points, 7.8 rebounds, 8.2 assists, and 1 steal per game, with shooting percentages of 51.3%, 37.6%, and 78.2%. In the playoffs, he averaged 40.8 minutes per game, scoring 25.4 points, 9 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 2 steals, and 1.8 blocks, with shooting percentages of 48.9%, 35.7%, and 77.5%.
Indeed, as long as LeBron is willing, he could easily play in the NBA beyond 45 years old; the record for the longest career is truly well-earned!
