It’s probable that this was the final meeting between LeBron James and Anthony Davis because the Lakers were eliminated from the playoffs and James reportedly chose not to exercise his player option.

But AD is certain that the two can still achieve a lot, and he stated as much in his Monday farewell interview. LA May Face Bulls Without LeBron James and Anthony Davis, Per the Lakers ιnjury Report – All Lakers 

Davis remarked, “I think we complement each other.” Together, we accomplished something exceptional. I get to spend the entire summer with him, which is a plus. Thus, there will be a lot of discussions and such. He is aware of my feelings for him. He has a lot of experience in this game. He’s in season 21, and he’s had to make judgments of this nature a few times.

“I’m going to try to recruit him back, of course, if he asks for my opinion everytime we discuss it. However, he is old enough to recognize that he only has a few more years left in this league, so in the end, he will decide what’s best for him and his family. Obviously, he wants to win. Though, in the end, it’s his decision and how he feels, I think we can do that here.

Due of their dedication to Team USA and their pursuit of an Olympic gold medal in Paris, AD will spend the entire summer with LeBron.

Stars have frequently used Team USA as a petri dish to mix and create suρer teams. James will undoubtedly be bent over backwards by Davis this summer in order to keep him wearing purple and gold come autumn, as Davis is well aware of this from his stint with Team USA during the 2012 Olympics.

LeBron has previously made career decisions in front of a global audience, and Davis will support his co-star no matter what he decides to do.

Following Game 5, Davis remarked, “He’s been in this position numerous times in his career where he had to make a decision, ultimately for himself and his family.” “I’m standing there, behind him in whatever he chooses to do. I’m not certain. I’m not sure. He probably isn’t even thinking about it at the moment.

“I’m fairly certain that he will come speak with me and update me on the situation before making the announcement in order to keep me informed. Needless to sаy, our five seasons together have been fantastic. We don’t want to be at this point—losing the opening round—if he does choose to return. Naturally, our objective is to return as a championship contender, maintain our health, and give Lakers Nation what they truly deserve if he does. However, he needs to make a choice, and he will let me and you all know when that time comes.

It appears “in all likelihood” that LeBron will re-sign with the Lakers, which is wonderful news for Lakers supporters. He will, however, be totally free after he chooses to opt out, and you never know if he will decide to go because he finds another location to be more enticing.

Therefore, until Bron signs on the dotted line, you have to do everything in your power to persuade him to come back, regardless of how certain you are that he will. It appears that AD is on board with that.
