"LeBron James’ decision to sign a two-year veteran-minimum deal worth about $3.88 million in 2026-27 (with a $4.07 million player option for 2027-28) instead of returning to the Lakers for a much larger salary was driven almost entirely by his desire to compete for another NBA championship rather than maximize earnings."

Barring injuries, should be a team with a good chance to compete for a championship.

Indeed. Can be a self absorbed Homecoming Queen for sure.

Nick Nurse is arguably the best fit for Lebron at this late stage of his career.

My guess is Nurse will use him as a bench player. 20+ minutes per game.

Preserve James’ energy and fitness.

They’ll have a bunch of combo platters that will be formidable.
