Previously, the Athletic reported that James is expected to jump out of contract and most likely not to leave the Lakers, but there are also American media reports that James still has the potential to join Curry.

On the other hand, James will play in the Olympics with Curry and Kerr, and there are many opportunities for communication, can they convince James to join? Warriors forward Green has a deep personal relationship with James, and he has repeatedly hinted that he wants to join James.
As for the Cavaliers, it is James' hometown team and old club, and the Cavaliers will be mentioned when James is likely to leave the Lakers.
After James was eliminated from the game, he updated his social media to respond to Nuggets guard Murray's evaluation of himself. "When I was a kid, he (James) was with the Cavaliers, they played against the Magic, and my best friend gave me a jersey for my birthday, and he's always been one of my favorite players," Murray said in the interview. He was always able to read the game and his physicality is still very good. I'm honored to be able to compete with him. ”
James retweeted Murray's interview with the caption: "He's really a bad guy (tribute)!" Murray beat the Lakers twice in this series.
