Suns’ Dillon Brooks makes LeBron James prediction after attending Lakers’ Game 4 vs. Thunder

The Los Angeles Lakers saw their season come to an end Monday night with a 115-110 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 4, but discussion quickly shifted to LeBron James’ future following the defeat.

Among those in attendance was Phoenix Suns forward Dillon Brooks, who offered his outlook on James’ next move after witnessing the performance firsthand.

“I don’t think it’s his last year,” Brooks told Yahoo Sports. “I think he got one more in him. I watched him when I was in the NBA, when I was a kid in high school. He’s got a phenomenal career and battled everybody and done it at a high level throughout. It’s been amazing to watch overall, a pleasure to battle against him.”

James, now 41, delivered another productive campaign in his 23rd NBA season despite adjusting to a different role within the Lakers’ lineup. Operating as a tertiary option behind Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves, he averaged 20.9 points, 7.2 assists, 6.1 rebounds and 1.2 steals per game while shooting 51.5 percent from the field and 31.7 percent from three-point range across 60 regular-season appearances.

In the postseason, James continued to contribute across the board during his 19th playoff run. He averaged 23.2 points, 7.3 assists, 6.7 rebounds and 1.3 steals while shooting 45.9 percent from the field and 32.7 percent from beyond the arc in 10 games. His efforts helped guide Los Angeles past the Houston Rockets in the first round, despite the absence of Doncic and extended time without Reaves, who returned later in the series.

Dillon Brooks predicts LeBron James has ‘one more’ after Lakers’ playoff exit

In the final game of the Lakers’ 2026 playoff run — and potentially the final postseason game of his career — James finished with 24 points, 12 rebounds, three assists and a block while shooting 8-for-18 from the field, 2-for-6 from three-point range and 6-for-8 from the free-throw line across 40 minutes of action.

While the Lakers fell short of advancing, James’ performance and durability continued to stand out. His ability to adapt to evolving roles and maintain production deep into his career remains a defining aspect of his legacy.

Brooks’ comments reflect a broader sentiment around the league that James may not be ready to step away just yet. As the offseason begins, attention will turn to whether the four-time champion chooses to return for another season or brings one of the most accomplished careers in NBA history to a close.
