With LeBron James entering free agency this summer and preparing for his final chapter in the NBA, here’s a look back at the 22-time All-Star’s best career plays.
Miami Heat have confirmed a video teasing LeBron James’ potential return to the NBA franchise was posted by mistake.
A live stream titled “LeBron James Introductory Press Conference”, scheduled for July 27, was uploaded to the Heat’s YouTube channel on Tuesday night but was later deleted.
A Miami Heat spokesperson later confirmed the video was mistakenly posted in preparation for James potentially returning to the team with which he won two championships.
The error has sent the basketball world into a frenzy as it awaits confirmation of where James will play his 24th NBA season.
James’ next step has dominated the news agenda ever since the 41-year-old confirmed he would be leaving the Los Angeles Lakers after eight seasons in June.
The Cleveland Cavaliers, Philadelphia 76ers and Miami Heat have all been linked with the four-time NBA MVP.

With the Los Angeles Lakers having confirmed LeBron James is leaving, will the four-time champion link up with his old nemesis in the Golden State Warriors?
James’ long-time friend and agent, Rich Paul, stressed that time would be taken and the next move carefully considered.
“We’re not going to be rushed. It’s his choice to make and, when he makes the choice, he’ll make it,” he told the Game Over with Max Kellerman and Rich Paul podcast.
