LeBron James is exploring free agency, and his next destination remains uncertain ahead of the 2026-27 NBA season. On July 9, Steph Curry discussed the possibility of playing with James.
What happened?
Curry was at the American Century Championship golf event in Nevada when he was asked about potentially playing with James.
Curry's pitch to James included the opportunity to play good basketball and be around people who know how to play the game.
The Golden State Warriors are one of several teams considered suitors for James, along with the Cleveland Cavaliers, Miami Heat, Minnesota Timberwolves, and Philadelphia 76ers.
Why it matters for LeBron James
Jaylen Brown of the 76ers also mentioned James while making an appearance on IShowSpeed's Twitch live stream.
Brown told Speed to pitch James, saying "You have to tell LeBron that he has to pull up."
James has been seen spending time on the golf course early this summer, which Curry referenced in his pitch.
What comes next?
James is expected to continue taking his time before coming to a decision.
He has spent part of his summer in Cleveland, and several teams have been able to send a voice note to James via his agent Rich Paul.
The 41-year-old James informed the Los Angeles Lakers that he would not be returning after spending the past eight seasons with the team.
James is the best free agent still available, and his decision will have a significant impact on the upcoming NBA season.
The NBA world waits as James weighs his options and considers his next move.
