Print Edition
LEBRON James has signed a new contract to remain with his hometown Cleveland Cavaliers for the next three seasons.
Thursday’s announcement, less than two months after James led the Cavaliers to their first NBA championship, was widely expected. “I’m re-signing back with the Cleveland Cavaliers, my hometown team,” James, 31, said in a video posted on sports news website Uninterrupted. “I can’t be more excited than this opportunity once again, man, to defend our crown, defend our title.” Agent Rich Paul told ESPN the new US$100 million contract is for three years, with James earning US$31 million next season, which would make him the highest paid player in the league. His salary would rise to US$33 million in the 2017-18 season.
