LeBron James will sign a four-year, $154 million contract with the Los Angeles Lakers, according to reports.
James became a free agent on Friday by opting out of the final year of his contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers, with the Lakers rumored to be a contender to land him.
The move is the third of James' career — he left the Cavaliers in 2010 to join the Miami Heat, then left the Heat in 2014 to join the Cavaliers again.
After four straight Finals runs, rumors began circulating last summer that James would consider a move to another team, particularly the Lakers. James has two homes in Los Angeles and an interest in production.
In moving, James is expected to try to lure other star players with him to create another super-team and contender to the Golden State Warriors.
