LeBron James set for live podcast recording this week

English

LeBron James will record a live episode of his Mind the Game podcast on Thursday in New York as his free agency continues without an announcement.

The 41-year-old has not yet selected his next team after more than two weeks of free agency. Five teams remain in contention: the Cleveland Cavaliers, Golden State Warriors, Miami Heat, Philadelphia 76ers and Minnesota Timberwolves.

James is scheduled to appear at Fanatics Fest in New York. He will record the episode with special guest host Tyrese Haliburton at 1:15 p.m. ET on Thursday.

James has previously used various methods to announce his decisions, including a television special in 2010, a Sports Illustrated essay in 2014 and an Instagram post in 2018.
