Lebron James  and his future have piled up a lot of rumours lately as he stated to reporters at All-Star Weekend that he is aware he doesn't have many years remaining in the NBA. If he does not sign with the Lakers , James will become a free agent this summer. In this scenario a bid war could start for the services of the 39-years old player.

Television Personality Predicts Lebron James' future

Nick Wright a know personality believes that if James does not sign with Lakers, he will go back to what is familiar. Wright predicts that James will choose to re-sign with one of his previous teams, ruling out a return to the Cleveland Cavaliers for a third time.

On Tuesday, Wright made a bold claim that James will "absolutely" make a return to the Miami Heat when he decides to depart from Los Angeles. This situation could be perfect for both the team and the player - the Heat are the current Eastern Conference champions and have a system where James excelled from 2010 to 2014.

James will have the opportunity to team up with All-Stars Bam Adebayo and Jimmy Butler , under the guidance of coach Erik Spoelstra, whom he deeply admires. It was under Spoelstra's leadership that James, along with Hall of Famers Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade, propelled the Heat to four consecutive NBA Finals appearances and secured championships in 2012 and 2013. James was awarded the Finals MVP in both championship years.

Miami faces a challenge in bringing James back, especially in terms of managing the salary cap, which could result in Tyler Herro leaving the team. LeBron may need to consider a reduction in pay compared to his current $47.6 million salary.

The Future in LA for Lebron James

James has consistently expressed his contentment with being a part of the Lakers, which he reiterated in his statements to the media at All-Star Weekend in Indianapolis. His player option for next season is valued at $50 million, and if it's exercised, he will match his initial tenure with the Cavaliers as the longest in his career. 

James will be closely observing to see what new signings the Lakers make to enhance their competitiveness for the upcoming season. Los Angeles clinched the NBA Cup in December to conclude a successful inaugural In-Season Tournament campaign, and the Lakers currently hold the ninth spot in the Western Conference with a 30-26 record. It appears likely that they will end up in the Play-In Tournament, where they would face one of the top two seeds in the West, currently the Minnesota Timberwolves or the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Many rumours and reports have come from different parties but yet nothing has become official. Lebron James has not deciced anything regarding his future yet and we might not here anything related to the topic till the end of the season.
