The Cleveland Cavaliers are reportedly interested in a second reunion with LeBron James, according to Chris Haynes of TNT and Bleacher Report. League sources indicate the franchise is open to the possibility of their greatest player finishing his legendary career where it all began in Northeast Ohio.
James, a native of Akron, was originally drafted by the Cavaliers with the first overall pick in the 2003 NBA Draft. After a four-year stint with the Miami Heat, he returned to Cleveland in 2014 and famously led the franchise to its first and only NBA Championship in 2016. A second return would mark the third separate stint for the four-time MVP and 20-time All-Star with his hometown team.
The interest stems from the significant appeal of a storybook ending for James, who is currently a member of the Los Angeles Lakers. While the logistical details regarding a potential trade or free agency move remain unclear, the Cavaliers front office appears keen on exploring the opportunity to bring the "King" back home for the final chapters of his career. James has previously expressed a desire to play alongside his son, Bronny James, which could play a factor in any future decision.
