LeBron James may be bringing more than just Bronny to a possible new team.
The ex-Los Angeles Lakers star James may potentially be coming as a package deal with one of his former star teammates, Jake Fischer of Bleacher Report reported on Saturday. Fischer says that veteran NBA big man Kevin Love could be a “plus-one” to any team that acquires James this offseason.
James, 41, remains unsigned as an unrestricted free agent. He is taking his time in deciding on his next team, but there does appear to be one frontrunner right now for James’ services.
As for Love, 36, he is a five-time All-Star and former NBA rebounding leader. He spent last season with the Utah Jazz, averaging 6.7 points and 5.8 rebounds per game over 36 total appearances.
James and Love also notably were already teammates on the Cleveland Cavaliers, playing together from 2014-18 and winning the 2016 NBA championship together. The two veterans recently linked up too at an awesome reunion of that 2016 Cavs title team.
We already heard last month that Love could be joining James on the Los Angeles Lakers. While James has since decided to move on from the Lakers, Love might still be following him to his next destination regardless.
