LeBron James' situation entering the offseason is complicated. Even if the four-time NBA champion forward wants to continue playing in the league, he must then decide whether to finish his career with the Los Angeles Lakers or a different NBA franchise.

As the Los Angeles Lakers begin a summer of major decisions, LeBron James' loyalty has become a matter of increasing uncertainty. While he has not expressed any outward signs of wanting a trade, recent reports indicate that he may consider donning a different jersey if he feels that joining a new team gives him a better chance for playoff success.
