Harden, Mitchell Recruit LeBron Back to Cleveland?

James Harden and Donovan Mitchell of the Cleveland Cavaliers are reportedly preparing to recruit LeBron James to join them in Cleveland during the upcoming offseason. James is currently in his 23rd NBA season and is expected to become a free agent following its conclusion. The prospect of returning to Cleveland to potentially win another championship is said to be an appealing factor for the four-time MVP.

Sources indicate that Harden and Mitchell are spearheading this recruitment effort. While James playing his final season with the Cavaliers is a possibility, the team would need to make significant financial adjustments, including shedding salary, to accommodate James' contract. The Cavaliers recently acquired Harden at the trade deadline, with management expecting him to significantly boost the team's playoff potential.
