Report: 'All Signs Point' to LeBron James Signing With Cleveland Cavaliers

"All signs point" to LeBron James signing with the Cleveland Cavaliers this summer, according to Kurt Helin of NBC Sports. 

The Philadelphia 76ers, Denver Nuggets, Miami Heat, Golden State Warriors and Minnesota Timberwolves want to sign LeBron as well, but most people in the NBA believe the basketball legend is going home. 

"It's known that LeBron was spending time with Draymond Green, but be careful not to read too much into it," Helin wrote. "League sources NBC Sports has spoken with still think all signs point to Cleveland as the destination."

LeBron, as everyone knows, is the greatest player in Cleveland franchise history. In two stints (2003-10, 2014-18) with the Cavaliers, LeBron averaged 27.2 points, 7.3 rebounds, 7.3 assists, 1.6 steals and 0.8 blocks per game. He won two MVPs and one Finals MVP and made 10 All-Star and 10 All-NBA teams.

For the Los Angeles Lakers last season, LeBron averaged 20.9 points, 6.1 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game. He's still an elite offensive player despite being the oldest active player in the NBA.

It would certainly be cool to see LeBron end his career in Cleveland. A starting lineup of James Harden, Donovan Mitchell, LeBron, Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen could compete for the championship next season. 

The Cavaliers made the conference finals last season, losing to the New York Knicks in four quick games. Adding LeBron could make Cleveland title favorites next season. 

According to Shams Charania of ESPN, Mitchell "would embrace" LeBron signing with the Cavaliers. It's widely believed that Harden and Mitchell have been recruiting LeBron to Cleveland this summer. 

LeBron began his NBA career in Cleveland. It only makes sense for him to end his iconic career at home. The King is a four-time MVP, four-time champion and four-time Finals MVP. His No. 23 jersey will be retired by the Cavaliers one day. 

We could be getting a decision soon, as LeBron will be at Fanatics Fest on Thursday in New York. He's taping a live episode of his podcast, Mind the Game, with Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton.
