LeBron James Eyes Warriors Reunion With Stephen Curry
Merlin sees LeBron’s future as a question mark after 2025-26, and a surprising suitor has emerged. Reports say "there's definitely some level of mutual interest" between James and the Warriors. LeBron is in the final year of his deal and has admitted he is "unsure if he will return" for a 24th season. He once said he would like to play with Stephen Curry, Golden State tried a trade before the 2024 deadline, and Draymond Green told reporters "I've always wanted to," but added "I don't see a path to it." Merlin senses the romance of two sunset-era icons joining forces. It would be a championship-ready pairing on paper, but cap math, roster fit, and the Lakers–Warriors rivalry make it complicated. Still, the mutual respect and history mean the idea will linger as teams and timelines shift.
