Eh, Bron will be back in LA in a Laker uniform.
In the midst of the playoffs, Rich Paul is just tryna get media heads and fans talking about something. Rob and Jeanie aren't letting Bron walk, plus Bron is the type to finish his contract so I don't see him leaving money on the table.
Bron would've made it clear with subtle hints once the season ended that he was leaving. When he left Cleveland (the first time), Miami, and the Cavs in 2018 there was a certain expression and energy he gave that let you know once those seasons ended he was done playing in those jerseys.
