This vague answer received a big response from fans online, who are all very curious about what’s coming next for James.
While some people were disappointed to hear his non-committal reply to the question, many were impressed and even proud of how he is handling the pressure of stardom at a young age, just as his dad did.
“Lebron might not be the best player of all-time, but he did a hell of a job raising this kid, good kid,” one fan said.
