LeBron James is set to enter free agency after the Los Angeles Lakers were swept by the OKC Thunder in the West Semifinals.

Why LeBron James Could Choose Suns in Free Agency

James, 41, is coming out of his 23rd NBA season, one in which he was named an All-Star for a record 22nd time.

As evidenced by his accolades and averages of 23.2 points, 6.7 rebounds and 7.3 assists during the Lakers’ 2026 playoff run, James still has plenty left in the tank at his age.

Given his size, playmaking ability and relationship with both Devin Booker and Jordan Ott, could James choose to continue — or end — his NBA career with the Phoenix Suns?

PHNX Suns dives into the possibility of James spending his 24th season in the Valley, and why it would make sense for everyone involved. It may seem far fetched, but there are real parallels that could make it a possibility.
