What team will LeBron James play for Game 1 of the 2018-2019 Season Houston Rockets: 5/2 Cleveland Cavaliers: 11/4 Los Angeles Lakers: 5/1 Golden State Warriors: 6/1. He went 2-of-16 in an elimination game the Thunder lost in 2018 and shot on 38.6 percent. The Cleveland Cavaliers season ended and LeBron James could be moving on as a free agent. Which teams will he consider when free agency begins July 1, 2018 (7/1/18)?

Quickly looking at Lebron’s potential offseason destinations one thing remains clear: it’s a total shitshow. I’d assume that Lebron has no idea where he’s going at this time, but let’s look at some potential possibilities.

Cleveland: Arguably the favorite at this point just simply because he’s currently employed by them the case for the Cavs is a tricky proposition though. Outside of Kevin Love there’s a sudden drop off in talent on a Cavs roster that has a top payroll in the league. Undersized and combo guards Jordan Clarkson and George Hill are nice players, but Lebron is going to be 33 he’s not looking to play the tail end of his career with just nice players. Larry Nance, arguably their most intriguing prospect does a lot of little things great and has a great motor, but Lebron is going to demand more than that from this Cavs team. It will be interesting to see how the Nets pick shakes out – and if the Cavs will look at making a big splash with the pick in hopes to keep Lebron.

Houston: Not much of a dark horse since it seems everyone in the NBA world has mentioned the Rockets as a potential destination of Lebron’s. His relationship with Chris Paul is no secret as they’ve talked about playing together at some point in their careers. How would Lebron fit with Harden and Paul? That would be the most interesting question to ask. I think it would boil down to Harden having to change the style he’s played the last two years. It was talked about a lot this summer with the arrival of Chris Paul that there was only one ball, but they’ve staggered minutes and Paul has been shooting lights out playing off the ball. James isn’t the type of shooter Paul is and will demand the ball to initiate offense a lot more if he wants to be his effective Lebron self.

San Antonio: A sneaky dark horse are the Spurs. Popovich and the Spurs provide Lebron with what he would probably consider heaven on a basketball court. Lebron almost needs Popovich more than Popovich needs Lebron. James has reached a point in his career that he’s almost unwilling to be coached anymore. We saw what happened with David Blatt and we’ve seen recent dust ups with Tyron Lue. Popovich is universally respected and Lebron has nothing but praise for the coach. Obviously the Spurs have their own separate issues to figure out with Kawhi Leonard, but if they are able to mend that, then they would be a perfect situation for Lebron to have a co-superstar and basketball mind he considers to be an equal.

Los Angeles Lakers: Lebron to the Lakers rumors are nothing new. It’s assuming Paul George will join Lebron and he will live out the end of his career setting up his media company for future success and enjoying endless sunny days in Southern California. What does it mean for Lebron if he still wants to chase championships? Well, it depends what you think of this current Lakers team. They have some interesting pieces in Lonzo, Kuzma, and Ingram. Assuming Randle is on the way out, does that combination along with James and Paul George have the firepower to go toe-to-toe with the likes of the Rockets or Golden State? Likely not. The problem I see is that there would be such a huge gap in age on the roster. Lebron and George, while not old, are seasoned vets – would they expect their young teammates to be ready to compete right away? That’s the biggest question mark I see with the Lebron to the Lakers rumors, it would seemingly sacrifice competing for championships, at least in the short term.

Philadelphia: My super dark horse from the beginning I think Philly has a good shot at luring Lebron. The biggest key in Lebron’s attraction to Philladelphia besides Embiid and Simmons? He doesn’t have to leave the eastern conference. The Celtics look poised to be the team of the future in the east, but the road to the NBA finals is just so much easier in the east. Lebron could join a team with young superstars and cap space to put together quite a dynamic roster. It would be interesting to see how Simmons and Lebron would fit together on the same court. Their skillsets are similar, but the absence of any sort of jumpshot for Simmons would cause some nightmares for Lebron. But, it is the eastern conference after all and it’s hard to imagine Lebron leaving after a decade of dominance.

The NBA season isn’t to the All-Star break, but that hasn’t sent stopped rumors speculating on which NBA team LeBron James will play for in 2018.

James is in the final year of his current Cleveland Cavaliers contract. Although he has a player option for next season, there is little chance he will be wearing a Cavs’ uniform after this season.

James is currently third in points per game (28.2) and he has been a big part of the Cavs’ recent surge in the Eastern Conference. Cleveland has won nine of its last 10 games, and the team has closed the gap on the first place Boston Celtics.

Despite James’ great play, there are problems off the court. James and the Cavs’ owners have a very strained relationship. NBA insiders have stated it is “beyond repair”, and that James will leave the Cavs in the summer of 2018. Of course, it will make the second time James has left Cleveland. He famously left the team to win the NBA title with the Miami Heat. Unbelievably, he returned to the Cavs and led them to the last three NBA Finals. However, the Cavs have won just one of those finals.

Speculation is rife that James will head out west. The NBA’s Western Conference is strong, and James may want one final challenge by going to a conference he hasn’t played in previously.

Of course, when a big name free agent comes onto the market, the Los Angeles Lakers are the first team linked. The Lakers have a great chance of signing the NBA’s highest paid player, and it would give James the opportunity to play in La-La Land. It would also give the Lakers a better chance of beating the Golden State Warriors in the regular season to knock off their rivals in the Western Conference Finals.

If the Eastern Conference and the Cavs lose James, it would be another major blow to the right side of the NBA. The East saw an exodus of star power during the 2017 offseason. However, no loss would be felt as greatly as the loss of James. Of course, it would open the door for another team to win the conference.

Sportsbooks have listed the Cavs as having the best odds currently (+125) of signing James despite the alleged tattered relationship between the player and owners. That is mostly down to the fact that he has a player option. The Lakers are second best in odds at +275. The combination of James and Lonzo Ball is mouthwatering. Add in Julius Randle, Andrew Bogut and Corey Brewer, and the Lakers suddenly elevate themselves to the elite level of Western Conference teams.

Los Angeles is currently 11th in the West. The addition of James would completely change the team’s hopes of making the playoffs in a year’s time.
