Harrison Faigen: Carmelo Anthony was asked about LeBron’s comments leaving the door open on a return to Cleveland, started laughing, and then claimed he has no idea what LeBron said. The man knows how to read traps on and off the court.

More on this storyline
Of course, James’s desired end game is unlikely to be in New York, or Cleveland, or Oklahoma City. He can extend his deal on August 4, and might do so for a “1+1” that has a player option in 2024 … the better to put maximum pressure on the Lakers the next two years, and also to set himself up to play with his son Bronny in 2024 if that should come to pass. (James could technically do this in 2023 if he was willing to play for G League Ignite, but I suspect that wasn’t the situation he was thinking aloud about). -via The Athletic / February 22, 2022
Terrence Ross: Lol wait wait, so who ever drafts bronny, gets LeBron too??? 🤔🤣 -via Twitter @TerrenceRoss / February 19, 2022
LeBron James’ message to all 30 teams Saturday was clear: If you want me, draft Bronny. “My last year will be played with my son,” James said. “Wherever Bronny is at, that’s where I’ll be. I would do whatever it takes to play with my son for one year. It’s not about the money at that point.” -via The Athletic / February 19, 2022
