Bet on LeBron James Retiring or Playing for Another Team
Following Monday night's season-ending loss that sends the Denver Nuggets into the Finals for the first time ever in their 47-year (nearly a half century) existence in the NBA, another milestone moment could soon happen.
LeBron James said he has "a lot to think about" in regards to "moving forward with the game of basketball."
Our friends at BetOnline were quick to release betting odds on LeBron's future. Spoiler alert: He's not retiring.
"We made the Knicks and 76ers co-favorites for the King's next club. Staying in L.A. with the Clippers is the third option, while a return to Cleveland and a quick trip to Phoenix round out the Top 5," BetOnline said in a statement.
James has never shied from sharing his love for Madison Square Garden, and a LeBron/Brunson combo could be very competitive in the East.
For Philly, Daryl Morey would likely give James a big part in the head coach hire, and the on-floor talent is already in place.
