Despite a rough stretch of recent play for the Lakers, LeBron James insisted that he plans on playing out the season following a 109–104 loss to the Mavericks on Tuesday night.
”We still have games to play,” James told reporters after Los Angeles’s 10th defeat in its last 13 games. ”Until you stomp me out, cut my head off, bury me 12 feet under, then I got a chance. So that’s my confidence.”
James, 37, has missed 17 games this season because of injuries, but reportedly has no plans to shut down his season, according to ESPN’s Dave McMenamin.
