LeBron James to return to Cavs to defend title in 2016-17 Author: Joe Vardon Publication: Cleveland.com
CLEVELAND, Ohio — Not that it should come as a surprise, but LeBron James fully intends to return to the Cavs to defend the NBA championship they just won next season.
“I love it here. I love being here. I love my teammates,” James told cleveland.com, moments before he boarded a float at The Q for the Cavs’ championship parade through downtown Cleveland. “Obviously my agent will take care of all the logistical things but, I’m happy. I’ve got no plans to go nowhere at this point.”
James, 31, can become a free agent if he decides not to exercise the one-year, $24 million player’s option in his contract. He will all but certainly decline the option on June 29 so he can get a raise from the Cavs — he can make upwards of $30 million next season under a new contract. – CLICK HERE to read full story.
