Shortly after the Minnesota Timberwolves eliminated the Los Angeles Lakers from the playoffs, LeBron James remained vague on how long he plans to play in the NBA.

“I don’t know. I don’t have an answer to that,” James said when asked about his future. “Something I’ll sit down with my family, my wife and my support group and just kind of talk through it and see what happens. Just have a conversation with myself on how long I want to continue to play.

“I don’t know the answer to that right now, to be honest. So, we’ll see.”

James’ comments come after Los Angeles’ 103-96 loss to Minnesota in Game 5 of their Western Conference first-round series. The 40-year-old forward posted 22 points, seven rebounds and six assists in the defeat. It marks the end of his 22nd NBA season and seventh with the Lakers.

This season, James averaged 24.4 points, 7.8 rebounds and 8.2 assists in 70 regular-season games.

“This is a business, too,” he said. “So you don’t know what the roster will look like next year besides the guys that are locked into contracts. I mean, s—, I got a lot to think about myself. I don’t know what the roster will look like. I don’t know where I stand right now.”

This story will be updated.

Champions League: What Arsenal, Barcelona and Inter must change to advance to the final in Munich

Getty Images Week one of the Champions League semifinals is done and dusted, and, well, that was something special. Tuesday delivered a slow-burning thriller even if Paris Saint-Germain flew out of the traps at the Emirates Stadium, taking an early lead that they would hold onto quite impressively without ever quite giving the impression they'd brushed Arsenal out of the tie.If that was a more cerebral encounter, Barcelona's 3-3 draw with Inter asked nothing of its viewers beyond drinking it all in. A deft Marcus Thuram flick, the fastest goal ever scored in a Champions League semifinal, would have lit up any game, but it barely registered as a footnote on the night of Denzel Dumfries' double, Lamine Yamal's brilliance, and a thunderbolt from Raphinha (that was ruled an own goal)That draw means both sides will meet at the San […]

San Mames, BilbaoSituated in the Basque Country, Spain, San Mames opened in 2013, replaced the old stadium with the same name as the home of Athletic Club.It holds 53,331 people, making it the largest stadium in Basque Country, and is nicknamed ‘La Catedral’, which as I'm sure you can imagine, translates into English as ‘the cathedral’.As they welcome one of the biggest (historically, at least) clubs in the world today, expect the congregation gathered to approach its full capacity. And the choir will probably be in full voice too!
