According to Adrian Wojnarowski from Yahoo! Sports, the decision by LeBron James as to where he wishes to continue his basketball career hasn’t yet been made but should he leave the Miami Heat this summer, he’s already begun recruiting players to follow him to wherever he may go.
"For the Cavaliers, there are no assurances James will sign with them, but he did reach out to two veteran free agents last week about joining him if he were to leave Miami, sources told Yahoo Sports. Sharp-shooting forward Mike Miller was one of them. Miller could not go back to the Heat because they amnestied him."
Miller was close to LeBron when they were in Miami together but thanks to the Heat amnestying him, he can’t return to Miami for another few years. There has been a lot made about Kevin Love being a major piece in getting LeBron back to Cleveland but it may turn out that a major attraction to signing elsewhere for LeBron could be the chance to play with Mike Miller again as it seems James was most successful in Miami when Miller was there — something he’s clearly not chalking up to circumstance.
