Though he has yet to make a firm commitment on his future with the Los Angeles Lakers, it seems like LeBron James is gearing up for his 23rd season. The Lakers superstar said in a recent interview with the Associated Press that his current focus is entirely on recovering from a knee injury he suffered in April.

Los Angeles was bounced in five games by a younger, quicker, and more determined Timberwolves squad — and to make matters worse, James suffered a Grade 2 MCL sprain in his left knee that required surgery.
