LeBron James' Farewell Tour Could Draw Immense Profit For The Lakers Superstar

At 41-years of age, time is running out in the NBA for LeBron James, but with one of the all-time greats set for free agency in the summer of 2026, we could be set up for a major farewell tour a year from now. While it's not been confirmed that James is set for retirement, after everything he's accomplished, it's widely expected that he has just one, or maybe two years left in the league before calling it quits.

There's been plenty of speculation connecting him to his hometown Cleveland Cavaliers, who he led to their only NBA Championship back in 2016, with the idea that he has one final run with the team that it all began with. Wherever he ends up, it could end up being a lucrative farewell tour, as Anthony Lima is now reporting that James could sell the streaming rights for the tour (potentially to a company like Netflix) for anywhere between $40M and $75M.

As of right now, it's unconfirmed whether or not James has been actively discussing this with anyone, but given how iconic he's been in his NBA career, it's no shock that there's interest in seeing how his farewell plays out behind the scenes.

Whether you believe James is the best, second best or just top-five of all-time, it's hard to deny his greatness, and with his retirement drawing near, there's going to be plenty of interest in making the most of The King's farerwell.
