That announcement never came despite fans camping out near LeBron’s Akron home and the police department in Bath Township increasing their presence.
However, a decision is still expected soon.
According to reports, LeBron is currently flying back to Miami with Dwyane Wade before heading to Brazil for the World Cup final this weekend.
That sounds like it could delay the decision process, but Adrian Wojnarowski is saying that LeBron James is expected to inform the Miami Heat and Cleveland Cavaliers of his decision before boarding a flight to Brazil.

We can all now take a deep breath, because the end appears to be in sight.
All signs are pointing towards LeBron James reuniting with the Cleveland Cavaliers, but we will just have to wait and see until a decision is officially made.
As we have learned before, LeBron will do what LeBron wants to do and there is no one who can understand what exactly is going on in his mind.
Buckle up, folks.
