Here's what you should know about this odds board:

How we got here: NBA free agency began on June 30 at 6 pm ET. However, hours before his official start, James' agent, Rich Paul, announced that James had decided to leave the Lakers this summer in free agency. James played in Los Angeles for eight years, the longest he has played in any city besides Cleveland. While in Los Angeles, he broke the all-time scoring record, won an NBA title and earned his fourth NBA Finals MVP. In addition to his time in Los Angeles, he played for the Cavaliers and the Heat, winning titles with all three franchises. He won the Rookie of the Year award, has four regular season MVPs and is a 22-time All-Star.

What's next?: At the top of the board is one of James' two former teams, the Miami Heat. James played four seasons in Miami, reaching the Finals each year and winning twice. If James were to return to South Beach, he would join Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bam Adebayo to form a star-studded trio. Second on the board is his other former team, the Cavaliers. Cleveland reached the Eastern Conference finals last season but was swept by the eventual champion Knicks.
