Just met his Los Angeles Lakers out of contention after the seasonJames’ future in Southern California is still in the future.
James added more fodder to it in a recent chat on HBO’s “The Shop”, pointed out that the player he wants to be the most fit in the NBA is the aforementioned Stephen Curry.
“Steph Curry is definitely someone I want to play with today. (He’s) deadly, man. When he steps out of the car, you should protect him from the moment he pulls into the arena.

Well, this has come. Given the new 4-year, $215.4 million extension he signed with the Golden State Warriors last summer, Curry will likely end his career in Northern California.
