Pat McAfee Show Rich Paul reveals that 10-12 teams have reached out to express interest in acquiring LeBron James

Charania I do know a lot of teams are calling LeBron and his camp I spoke to Rich Paul last week and he told me every contender in the NBA has essentially placed a call since the season ended

Rich Paul just plainly laid out Lebron's options on his podcast

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

Windhorst Lakers reached out to LeBron to LeBrons representative to Rich Paul and said Wed like to have LeBron back OK But there have been no further talks as of today when I got this update LeBron has not you know made himself available to meet with the Lakers yet

Colin Cowherd Lakers didnt want to re-sign LeBron They really didnt I trust my sources Lakers didn't want to be bullies and say LeBron get out of here They didnt want to alienate Rich Paul who could have great players we want to sign Let's let Rich Paul and LeBron win the PR game today

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
