LeBron James takes the opportunity to get a big family picture with his wife, Savannah, and their three kids – Bronny, Bryce and Zhuri – at the 2023 ESPY Awards.
The family of five stepped out for the show where LeBron was honored with the Best Record-Breaking Performance honor, at the Dolby Theatre on Wednesday (July 12) in Hollywood.
During his acceptance speech, LeBron addressed the rumors that he’d be retiring from the NBA and revealed that – HE’S NOT!
While up on stage, LeBron opened up about his decision, saying that “when the season ended, I said I wasn’t sure if I was gonna keep playing. I’m here now, speaking for myself. In that moment, [I was] asking myself if I can still play without cheating the game.”
“Can I give everything to the game still? The truth is, I’ve been asking myself this question at the end of the season for a couple years now, I just never openly talked about it,” he went on.
LeBron added, “The real question for me is, ‘Can I play without cheating the game?’ The day I can’t give the game everything on the floor is the day I’ll be done…Luckily for you guys, today is not that day.”
“I still got something left. A lot left! I love you all and thank you so much for watching this journey thus far.”
Rumors about LeBron retiring from the court were reupped a few months ago. He’s previously stated that he would like to play his final NBA season alongside his son Bronny, who is 18.
FYI: Lebron is wearing a custom Louis Vuitton look from Pharrell’s debut collection.
