Could LeBron James already be plotting a move away from the Los Angeles Lakers, and if so, could that destination be a third stint in Cleveland?

Speculation around a possible return to the Cavaliers was floated after LeBron was spotted courtside and watching Cleveland playing the Boston Celtics in the NBA playoffs.

NBA insider Brian Windhorst told ESPN Radio that James' appearance at this game brings back memories of when he made his first return to Cleveland - and that a reunion could be on the cards once again.


'I will say this, the first thing I thought of was this moment 10 years ago where LeBron showed up to a game in Cleveland while he was a player for the Miami Heat to honor Zydrunas Ilgauskas’ Jersey retirement, his longtime teammate. 

'And he got in a private plane, flew from Chicago over to Cleveland on an off night. Pat Riley was not happy. And a few months later he signed with the Cavs…

There could be a way to keep LeBron in Los Angeles Lakers colors: if they drafted his son, Bronny, and hired the head coach he wants.

According to ESPN's Stephen A. Smith, James wants the team to draft Bronny and hire JJ Redick as their next head coach.

But there could be a road block in the way, according to Smith: 'Bronny James might not make it to the Lakers' second-round pick. Because if a team like the Dallas Mavericks could position themselves to get him in the second round, they'll take him. Because LeBron said he wants to go where his son goes.

'And if you're the Dallas Mavericks, and you got Kyrie, and you got Luka, and LeBron James is willing to come to Big D, that might be the first time something's more popular than the Cowboys.' 

Rumors of LeBron's unhappiness with the Lakers have been circulating for months as the team struggled throughout the season.

The Lakers finished with a 47-35 record and won their play-in game over the New Orleans Pelicans. But in the first round, they fell to the Denver Nuggets in five games.
