Чөлөөт агент болсон Леброн Жэймсийг эгнээндээ нэгтгэхээр NBA-ийн хэд хэдэн баг өрсөлдөж эхэллээ.
Лос-Анжелес Лэйкерс-т өнгөрүүлсэн найман жилийн хугацаагаа өндөрлүүлж буй 41 настай Леброн Жэймс ирэх улиралд тус багтаа эргэн ирэхгүй гэдгээ мэдэгдсэн юм. Түүнийг эгнээндээ нэгтгэх сонирхолтой байгаа Голдэн Стэйт Уорриорс, Кливлэнд Кавалиерс, Майами Хит, Миннесота Тимберволвс болон Филадельфи 76ерс зэрэг багууд түүний агент Рич Паулаар дамжуулан санал хүсэлтээ илэрхийлж байна.
Голдэн Стэйт Уорриорс-ын хамгаалагч Стэфэн Көрри энэ талаар байр сууриа илэрхийлэхдээ, шилдэг тоглогчидтой хамт өрсөлдөөнтэй тоглолт үзүүлэх боломжтойг онцолсон байна. Тэрээр Жэймсийг багтаа нэгдэхийг урьж, багийн өрсөлдөх чадварыг нэмэгдүүлэх тал дээр анхаарч байгаагаа дурджээ.
Мөн Филадельфи 76ерс-ийн тоглогч Жэйлен Браун ч Жэймсийг өөрийн багт нэгдэхийг уриалсан байна. Одоогоор Леброн Жэймс шийдвэрээ гаргахдаа яарахгүй байгаа бөгөөд зуны амралтаа Кливлэнд хотод өнгөрүүлж байна.

LeBron James’ next destination remains the biggest uncertainty ahead of the 2026-27 NBA season as he continues to explore free agency.
The 41-year-old, the best free agent still available, spent the past eight seasons with the Los Angeles Lakers but informed the team he would not be returning.
While some Lakers teammates, such as Austin Reaves and Luka Dončić, thanked James for the time they shared, other teams and players have begun making their pitch to James.
Several teams interested in signing James have been able to send a voice note to James, via his agent Rich Paul, making their pitch, according to ESPN’s Sham Charania.
The Golden State Warriors, Cleveland Cavaliers, Miami Heat, Minnesota Timberwolves and Philadelphia 76ers have all been considered suitors for the all-time leading scorer.
Warriors guard Stephen Curry was out at the American Century Championship golf event in Nevada on Thursday, July 9, when he was asked about potentially playing with James.
“The pitch is: Do you want to play good basketball and be around people who know how to play the game? Raise our floor, our competitiveness this year. There’s good golf in the Bay,” Curry said.
James has been seen on social media spending a lot of time on the golf course early this summer.

Jaylen Brown of the 76ers also mentioned James while making an appearance on IShowSpeed’s Twitch live stream while attending the World Cup game between France and Morocco at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts.
Brown was seen telling Speed to pitch James: “You have to tell LeBron that he has to pull up.”
“LeBron, pull up to Philly,” Speed said. “Think about it. LeBron. Jaylen Brown.”
