NBA players already recruiting LeBron to their teams

LeBron James neck

LeBron James is expected to become a free agent once again and potentially leave the Cleveland Cavaliers, and players around the league are excited for that possibility. They’re so excited in fact, that less than 30 minutes after James’ Cavs were swept in the NBA Finals by the Golden State Warriors, several players were already recruiting him.

It started with Joel Embiid encouraging LeBron to join him in Philly:

Trust The Process!!!! Find a new slant @KingJames

Then San Antonio Spurs guard Dejounte Murray got in on it:

And Enes Kanter tried to recruit James to the Knicks:

Kanter trying to get LeBron to New York is especially interesting considering he hasn’t even committed to them yet, though that’s a good sign.

Expect the LeBron free agency talk to be much more exciting than the NBA Finals were.
