Charania The Lakers have made it clear that they want him back but the one thing I do know is that multiple contenders are already circling If LeBron is really going to hit the open market and decide and have a true free agency he's not going to have a shortage of teams

Charania LeBron James and the Lakers just simply didnt see eye to eye on what it meant to try compete for a championship Sources close to LeBron tell me that his priorities are clear with his next home he wants to compete for championships he wants to play meaningful basketball

Charania If you are a NBA team that has contending aspirations LeBron James according to my sources it is not a financially driven decision That means if you want to slot him in if you want to pitch him on a minimum pitch him on an exception pitch him on a non-max contract

Charania The Philadelphia 76ers are trying to make a pitch to free agent LeBron James The Warriors Cavaliers Heat 76ers and maybe one or two other teams are in the mix for James

Charania The Miami Heat Cleveland Cavaliers and 76ers appear to be the top 3 teams in the LeBron sweepstakes

Charania on Lebron leaving the Lakers I'm told that happiness is the biggest factor in his decision to leave the Lakers It's about where will he and his family be happy It's not gonna be a money driven decision

Charania LeBron James is taking the Sixers free agency pitch really seriously I look at it when I talk to teams now as kind of a hierarchy of Cleveland Miami Philadelphia
