LeBron James' time with the Los Angeles Lakers is over. After eight seasons in the purple and gold, LeBron, through his agent, Rich Paul, announced that he will not be returning to the Lakers for a ninth season and will continue his NBA career elsewhere for a record-setting 24th season in the association.
