[Woike]: LeBron James is expected to opt out of his current deal with the Lakers and become an unrestricted free agent.



Full quote: “James is expected to opt out of his current contract. Although the sense is he’ll re-sign with the Lakers, he will be an unrestricted free agent if he declines his player option.”

    Would be a pretty awkward podcast if he signs elsewhere

  2. Sc0rch1ngDr4g0n

    Got his podcast bro the bag before leaving to join his son wherever

    Didn’t Rich Paul tell us this like a month ago?

    Makes sense that he’d opt out and sign a 2 or 3-year contract somewhere (and get a no-trade clause in there). Probably LA.

    Should go to the Knicks or Cavs if he wants to win another ring. Weaker conference. Both already playoff teams. If he just wants to chill, stay with the Lakers.

    Well, duh. This was going to happen no matter what.

  6. Maleficent-Salad3197

    Good. The Lakers will finally rebuild.

  7. Belieber_420

    Hes going to the Hornets because if he wins a ring there, people would finally put him ahead of MJ. Even MJ couldn’t win a ring with the Hornets

    Breaking news: Nothing has changed at all since last year.

    LeBron’s last contract man, this time there’s no doubt, it’s actually happening in 2 years.

    “So you’re telling me there’s a chance?” – me, a Hawks fan.

    I think he’s doing it just to get the contract, but it would be funny if he bailed after getting JJ the job.

    He’s really on his retirement contract. I cannot…

    LeBonvoyage and Bronny are OKC bound. Tell me I can bet that somewhere.

    Plenty of cap space AND picks to waste, plus Bronny doesn’t have to deal with Lakers-level scrutiny his first year or so in the league. Father and son can be roomies (albeit in some kind of mansion).

    Two-year with a player option for that second year for daddy, and son signs a two-year, and if daddy bounces, son can hold out while daddy’s new team trades a second round pick for him.

    Oh, plus OKC’ s roster is…probably the consensus WC champs with the Jameses there, right? That team then just add Lebron?

    Is this copy-pasted from like a month ago?

  15. canyoudigholes

    For a vet min, he can join the Avengers 👀. Rich only ruled out Phoenix…

  16. jefe_hook

    Probably his final contract before the NBA expansion starts.

  17. Yodudewhatsupmanbruh

    Why is the mans name just Elmer Fudds response to a panhandler?

  18. Alkaline_Lifestyle

    Damn if this is true how he gonna do JJ like that 😹

  19. InsideHangar18

    Where does he go though? Like, where’s his best chance to win a chip? Dallas maybe?

  20. Sebas5627

    Lebron shamelessly goes to Okc to threepest while playing 30 regular season games a year

  21. bradperry2435

    No shit. The lakers just hired a rookie coach to be fired in 1.5 seasons.
