LeBron James to return to Cavs to defend title in 2016-17

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Not that it should come as a surprise, but LeBron James
fully intends to return to the Cavs to defend the NBA championship they just
won next season.

"I love it here. I love being here. I love my teammates," James told
cleveland.com, moments before he boarded a float at The Q for the Cavs'
championship parade through downtown Cleveland. "Obviously my agent will take
care of all the logistical things but, I'm happy. I've got no plans to go
nowhere at this point."

James, 31, can become a free agent if he decides not to exercise the
one-year, $24 million player's option in his contract. He will all but
certainly decline the option so he can get a raise from the Cavs -- he can
make upwards of $30 million next season under a new contract.

Free agents can begin negotiating with teams July 1 and can sign July 6.

But James fully intends to lead the defense of the first championship in
franchise history, and the first by a major pro sports team in Cleveland
since 1964. He's been blown away emotionally by the outpouring of support
from Cavs fans over the past few days, and, lest ye forget, he was born in
Akron and just delivered a title to the region where he's lived for 27 of his
31 years.

"This is the happiest time in my life right now," James said.
