LeBron James is narrowing down the finalists in his latest NBA decision.One of the best running backs in the NFL already knows where The King should finish his basketball career.Almost the entire NBA wants to sign LeBron JamesGetty“I think it is one of the greatest sports towns in the world,” said Eagles star Saquon Barkley, while pumping up Philadelphia. “I know Josh Hart said the opposite. I saw that today on Twitter. But I have to disagree with him. If you want to go out with a bang, I feel like a great spot would be in Philly.”The Miami Heat and Cleveland Cavaliers appear to be rivaling the 76ers as the next NBA landing spot for James, who is the league’s all-time leading scorer and recently left the Los Angeles Lakers behind.There’s also the Golden State Warriors, with Stephen Curry pitching golf in the Bay Area and head coach Steve Kerr returning for another year.James joining forces with Curry in San Francisco would give the Warriors a superteam.But Barkley wants The King to commit to Philly, instead.“Bringing a championship to Philadelphia, you’d be remembered forever,” said Barkley, who rushed for 2,005 yards in 2024 and won Super Bowl LIX with the Eagles. Barkley proved the difference that a premium free agent can make, and James is weighing pitches for a multitude of interested NBA suitors.But one team has reportedly already been crossed off James’ list.“When I talk to teams around the league and when I do my research, the teams that continue to come up are Cleveland, Miami, Philadelphia,” ESPN’s Shams Charania said. Saquon Barkley wants LeBron James to play for the Philadelphia 76ersgettyBarkley eclipsed the 2,000 rushing yard mark in 2024Getty“When the Sixers got Jaylen Brown, I did some research, and I found out within 24 hours, he’s taking their pitch really seriously. When I talk to teams now, it’s kind of a hierarchy of Cleveland, Miami, Philadelphia. And then I think there are some teams on the periphery.”One team not mentioned is the Denver Nuggets, who are led by three-time NBA MVP Nikola Jokic but in a transition period in the Western Conference.There’s no confirmation that the Nuggets have been ruled out.But James will likely chose a top contender with a championship-ready roster.The Cavaliers are led by Donovan Mitchell and made the Eastern Conference finals last season, while the Heat feature new acquisition Giannis Antetokounmpo and the 76ers recently added Jaylen Brown.Barkley will soon be focused on training camp with the Eagles, who open their 2026 season with a Week 1 home contest vs Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders.
