LeBron James’ agent sees a possible split in the NBA offseason with the Lakers

• LeBron James’ agent sees a possible split in the NBA offseason, and the reasoning will have to do with the uncertainty surrounding LeBron James’ next move.
• James’ agent Rich Paul has pointed out in a podcast appearance that James could decide, which would explain the context of the “dominoes” going forward.
• In a material by AP and Marca, it is stated that Golden State Warriors are not the only ones, which is why it is planned for James, through which the other financial club will be discussed.

In the meantime, the NBA is paying attention to LeBron James, because the next move could be made in the coming days. AP material says that it is expected that LeBron James will sign a new contract, and all other clubs will follow suit.

According to AP, James, who turns 42 this year, is entering his 24th season, having played so far with Los Angeles Lakers. The material also notes that James’ agent Rich Paul (Klutch Sports) said: James is still considering his next step.

AP reports that Paul believes that the “dominoes” could begin to fall, starting with Philadelphia, Cleveland, Miami, Minnesota, Denver, Golden State, San Antonio, Dallas, Boston and New York. It also states that Paul believes that if Knicks do not win, then, as he put it, James might be able to switch to the team.

AP and Marca also note that the negotiations could take place within the next hour, but the team is not likely to be able to comment on the contract until 12:01 p.m. Eastern, when James will be able to sign a new contract worth $3.9 million. The material also says that James might receive a maximum amount, which would be 4 million to 8 million, but it is not yet clear, as the club has not announced it.

Meanwhile, Marca writes that the strategy of Golden State Warriors during the offseason, according to the publication, is to wait for James to decide. The material says that, according to Marca, James’ “decision” will determine the future of the franchise’s financial situation.

Marca also cites a report from ClutchPoints NBA insider Brett Siegel: he said that the situation in Golden State and Miami Heat could change after the decision, and that it could be worth $12.3 million for Philadelphia 76ers. The publication also says, citing Siegel, that Warriors would be ready to offer Simon’s contract, which would be about $6 million per year.

Marca also writes that Colin Sexton, according to Siegel, is a player who could be targeted by Los Angeles Lakers, and not by Warriors. However, Marca writes that Siegel said: James, for his part, is expected to be involved in the negotiations, and that this is not the exact reason why it will be decided.

AP and Marca agree that LeBron James’ next team will be determined by his decision, and that the rest of the clubs will have to wait for his choice.
