Report: LeBron James has made decision, will announce Tuesday

LeBron James

LeBron James has reportedly decided which team he will play for next season.

According to Nick Wright of FOX Sports 1, LeBron had made up his mind as of Sunday and informed those close to him of which team he is signing with. He is expected to make an official announcement on Tuesday.

ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski said Sunday that LeBron’s representatives — not LeBron — are planning to meet with the 76ers. Wright insists that report does not contradict his own.

A previous report claimed LeBron does not want the drama to drag out this offseason, so it would make sense for him to announce his decision prior to the 4th of July holiday. When James was a free agent two times before, most other players waited until after he signed to sign contracts of their own. With teams having less salary cap space this summer than in past years, that has not been the case early in free agency.

While we have heard that at least one other team besides the Lakers and Cavaliers is very much in the mix for LeBron, all indications have been that he is going to sign with Los Angeles. Some Las Vegas sportsbooks moved the Lakers on Saturday to a -5000 favorite to sign James, which makes it seem like a lock.
