Report: 'Growing Belief' Warriors' Challenger for LeBron Is Clear Favorite

According to The Stein Line's Marc Stein and Jake Fischer, there is a 'growing belief' among teams pursuing LeBron James in free agency that the Cleveland Cavaliers have become the clear favorites to sign the 41-year-old. The Cavaliers, who originally drafted James, hold a strong appeal as a 'return home' destination, given his Ohio roots and two previous stints with the team. Golden State Warriors, previously considered early favorites, are now seen as less likely to land James.
