LeBron James informed the Los Angeles Lakers that he intends to play his historic 24th NBA season elsewhere. ESPN NBA insider Shams Charania pushed back on O'Connor's report during an appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show" Thursday. "My sources tell me that LeBron James, his agent Rich Paul — that inner circle. They're not waiting for Anthony Davis to get traded anywhere, they're not waiting for anyone else to move around anywhere." The Miami Heat, Cleveland Cavaliers, Golden State Warriors and Philadelphia 76ers are considered the frontrunners to land James in free agency.
