LeBron James' 2026 free agency can't be discussed without mentioning a potential team-up with career-rival Stephen Curry on the Golden State Warriors.
The Warriors are among James' shortlist of teams he's considering as his next destination, with Curry even openly recruiting James by explaining why he should join Golden State.
While other teams seem to be more appealing destinations, even James' agent Rich Paul couldn't dismiss the notion of a LeBron-Curry team-up on the Warriors.
On the latest episode of the Game Over podcast, Paul explained to co-host Max Kellerman why the Warriors and Curry are such an enticing fit for James from a strictly basketball perspective.
"If we're talking strictly basketball, you don't want to play them. You definitely don't want to play them in a playoff series. You don't want to get to the trade deadline and have little surface-edge type of moves made. You talk about just basketball brilliance of mind and experience, production. It's pretty tough."
