LeBron will sign with the Lakers

Let’s not beat around the bush; when the dust settles, LeBron James is going to sign with the Los Angeles Lakers. I can’t believe that’s are real sentence in 2018; it’s pretty amazing, and for some weird reason, it actually feels right.

The Lakers have the most roster and salary cap flexibility, of the players in pursuit for The King, and there’s rumblings that LeBron wants to be in Los Angeles. It just makes too much sense for it not to happen. Once they secure LeBron, don’t be surprised if they up the ante and finalize a deal for Kawhi Leonard.

Los Angeles can’t simply sign LeBron James. There has to be a corresponding move after they secure him, and it’s look more and more like that move is going to involve Kawhi. Or maybe…Paul George?
