There’s a lot of noise — some informed, some not — that LeBron James is signing with the Cleveland Cavaliers in free agency. However, nothing is set in stone or guaranteed until James or his team announces where he plans on playing next season. And rumors are flying in every direction.
To prove that point, ESPN’s Brian Windhorst said on a recent radio interview that a “good source” told him that James signing in another city was a “done deal.” He didn’t say that it was a done deal or that he was reporting it. The point here was to say that there are rumors in other cities as well.
Figuring out which other team Windhorst could be referring to is anyone’s guess. The Miami Heat, Philadelphia 76ers, and the Golden State Warriors all make compelling cases to varying degrees.

Along the same lines as someone saying they’ve heard other things, Sam Amick of The Athletic reported that he had a team tell him that they thought the Heat were the favorites. He then pointed out that he didn’t know what led that team to say that.
At this point, we still don’t know anything for certain. While it seems the Cavs are the ones expected to land James, other teams make compelling cases as well. And those other teams still feel like they are in the race for LeBron.
We’ll figure out how this ends in due time. All we can say right now is that it doesn’t seem like LeBron is in any type of rush to make a decision. The endless speculation and rumors could drag on for anywhere from several more hours to several more weeks.
