Lakers GM Rob Pelinka on LeBron James' potential retirement: 'Our hope would be that his career continues'

The Los Angeles Lakers are finished for the season, and now the team begins an offseason that's set to be filled with questions about LeBron James' future in the league. General manager Rob Pelinka and head coach Darvin Ham addressed some of those questions in the team's exit interviews Tuesday.

“Personally, going forward with the game of basketball, I’ve got a lot to think about,” James said Monday after the Western Conference finals Game 4 loss to the Denver Nuggets. On Tuesday, Pelinka and Ham agreed that the 38-year-old deserves as much time as he needs.
