As each day passes in the NBA season, it seems more and more likely that Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James might be starting a new journey somewhere else in the league. With the Cavaliers struggling both on and off the court, it seems Cleveland won’t be seeing another championship with LeBron. But could another team be eyeing a potential championship with the King joining their team in the summer?
Sportsbook Bovada recently updated their odds on where LeBron James will play next season as some of the odds are surprising.
Houston Rockets 5/2
Cleveland Cavaliers 13/5
Los Angeles Lakers 3/1,
Philadelphia 76ers 11/2,
Golden State Warriors 10/1,
San Antonio Spurs 18/1.
The Houston Rockets are the top choice right now as the pairing of Harden and James would be one of the most unstoppable combinations in the league. If Chris Paul and Harden are already a deadly combo in the league, wait until James comes in and stirs the pot in Houston.
It has been a little over a decade since the Rockets last raised a championship banner as this could be the final stop for King James. One of the most surprising teams in the mix right now are the Philadelphia 76ers. Fans have already stated their case for the King to come to Ohio as there are billboards across the state currently with #PhillyWantsLeBron.

Speaking of billboards, Philadelphia is not the only city joining in on that fun as the City of Angels has also thrown in their own billboards across Los Angeles. Could the #LABron recruitment play a role?
It is going to be an interesting offseason for sure as the whole NBA world will be keeping close eyes on LeBron James on who he will be joining this summer.
