Did LeBron James Sign Yet? Where the Star Could Be Headed Next

LeBron James is the biggest free agent left on the market this summer in the NBA. This is a familiar position for him to be in. The star loves the spotlight and milking where he's going to play next. This time around, it's been harder than ever to predict where he will end up.

Let's look at some of the heavy favorites and see which one might be the final destination for the league's most popular and polarizing player.

Cleveland Cavaliers

The hometown Cavs seem to be the favorite right now, or at least they are by many prediction models. Cleveland is LeBron's home team that he's already played for twice. He led them to a title in 2016 and has played a total of 11 years out of his 23 in the league with them.

The Cavs have a contending team in the Eastern Conference, but will LeBron fit well with Donovan Mitchell and James Harden? This might be one of the reservations he has before deciding to sign there.

Denver Nuggets

Denver is one of the most popular dark-horse candidates for LeBron's signature. Nikola Jokic is perhaps the best player in the league still, and LeBron would fit so well next to the superstar center. They both think the game through and process information better than most others.

The Nuggets need an extra boost to get past San Antonio and Oklahoma City in the Western Conference. Would LeBron want to be that person?

Philadelphia 76ers

The Sixers are having an incredible offseason spearheaded by the trade for Jaylen Brown. With a new lineup consisting of Brown, Tyrese Maxey, Joel Embiid, and V.J. Edgecombe, LeBron would make this the most fun team to watch in the Eastern Conference. The health of Embiid is always a major deterrent, though.

Golden State Warriors

The Warriors seemed to be a bigger favorite earlier on in the conversation, but now it's looking like they might be on the outside looking in. Would LeBron really want to play with Steph Curry? The Warriors will always be Steph's franchise, no matter what. Draymond Green is a good friend of James', but that might not be enough to sway him to a team that he would be an outsider on.
