how long will james, who is about to turn 40, continue to play in the nba? on september 14, beijing time, lakers reporter dave mcmenamin said on the nba today program that james will not retire after only one year. no matter when he leaves the league, he will hold a retirement tour in the last season of his career.

"lebron (james) signed a contract extension this summer, but it's only guaranteed for one year (the second year is a player option)," mcmenamin said. "but i don't think his career is over. he's not going to leave the lakers and retire just because the lakers haven't performed well all season. he's going to do it on his own timetable, and i think when lebron's last game comes... we'll all know, and it'll be must-see tv. lebron's retirement tour will travel to 28 nba cities and end with a great farewell game."
