Чөлөөт агент болох гэж буй Леброн Жэймсийг эгнээндээ нэгтгэхээр Кливлэнд Кавалиерс идэвхтэй ажиллаж байна.
Кливлэнд Кавалиерс нь чөлөөт зах зээлийн нээлттэй үеэр Леброн Жэймсийг элсүүлэхээр зорьж буй цөөн багийн нэг юм. 2003 онд карьераа эхлүүлж байсан төрсөн нутагтай нь ойрхон энэ багт эргэн ирж, замналаа өндөрлөх нь түүний хувьд бэлгэдэлтэй хэрэг болох юм. Гэсэн хэдий ч мэргэжилтнүүд түүнийг Жэймс Хардентай нэг багт хэрхэн зохицож тоглох талаар эргэлзээтэй байр суурь илэрхийлж байна.
Леброн Жэймсийн агент Рич Пол Дариус Гарландыг Жэймс Хардентай солих нь багт ашиггүй гэж үзэж байсан удаатай. Гэвч сүүлийн үеийн мэдээллээр Рич Пол нь Жэймс Хардентай найрсаг харилцаатай бөгөөд Кливлэнд Кавалиерс хоорондын харилцаанд ямар нэгэн сөрөг асуудал байхгүй гэдгээ илэрхийлжээ. 2024 онд Леброн Жэймс өөрийн цалингаа бууруулан байж Жэймс Харден шиг чадварлаг тоглогчтой хамт тоглоход бэлэн байгаагаа илэрхийлж байсан нь тэднийг нэг багт тоглох боломжтойг харуулж байна.
Жэймс Харден ч мөн адил Леброн Жэймсийг багтаа нэгтгэх боломжийг бүрдүүлэхийн тулд гэрээгээ цуцалсан гэх мэдээлэл бий. Эх сурвалжуудын мэдээлснээр хоёр тоглогчийн хооронд ямар ч зөрчил байхгүй бөгөөд тэд харилцаа сайтай байгаа аж. Ирэх улиралд хаана тоглохоо Леброн Жэймс өөрөө шийдэх болно гэдгийг түүний агент онцолсон байна.

LOS ANGELES, CA – MARCH 31: LeBron James #23 of the Los Angeles Lakers and James Harden #1 of the Cleveland Cavaliers talk before the game on March 31, 2026 at Crypto.Com Arena in Los Angeles, California.

The Cleveland Cavaliers are one of the handful of teams hoping that LeBron James chooses them in free agency. The appeal of Cleveland is understandable for James from an off-court perspective. There’s a certain level of poetry to potentially finishing his career where it started in 2003, for the closest team to his hometown of Akron.
The potential downside to playing in Cleveland could be the roster, at least according to the speculation of some pundits. Particularly, how LeBron would fit next to James Harden.
James’s agent, Rich Paul, stoked these flames during his infamous “whiteboard episode” of the Game Over podcast. In that episode, Paul said that trading Darius Garland for Harden was a minus. It’s worth noting that Paul is also Garland’s agent.

According to Brandon “Scoop B” Robinson, some of the concerns about a personal clash between Harden and James are overblown. Robinson reported that Paul told him that he likes Harden. “He’s actually my friend.” And, that there’s no ill will between Klutch and the Cavs for the Garland trade.
Additionally, there is previous reporting that LeBron would be open to sharing the court with Harden. Back in 2024, Dave McMenimin reported that James would be willing to take a pay cut with the Los Angeles Lakers if it meant playing with a “playmaker such as James Harden.” Whether or not that is still true from LeBron’s perspective remains to be seen.
On the other hand, Harden appears willing to play alongside LeBron. It’s been reported that one of his motivations for opting out of his previous deal was to give the Cavs more flexibility to sign a player like James. Additionally, Robinson reported that a source close to Harden said that there’s “no animosity” between James and Harden and that the duo is “cool.”
Paul went on to tell Robinson he rocks with Dan Gilbert, Koby Altman, and Brandon Weems. And, that “LeBron will make his own decision” about where he wants to play next season.
We’ll see what this all means for the Cavs chances of landing LeBron. At this point, it’s anyone’s guess as to what James is planning on doing or when an announcement will be made.
