Yesterday LeBron announced he would reveal his destination Thursday at 9pm ET, on ESPN. His announcement would be a 1-hour broadcast and the proceeds would go to the Boys and Girls Club of America. James will announce his future NBA plans within the first 10 minutes of the special, ESPN said.
The other two members of the Free-Agent Summit chose to make their decision known a day earlier on ESPN as well.
Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade will join forces in Miami. No contract details have surface yet, but with the signing deadline tomorrow the numbers will be made available.
Chris Bosh leaves the Toronto Raptors where last season, Bosh registered career highs in scoring (24 points per game), rebounding (10.8 average) and field-goal percentage (51.8).
“We’ve wanted to play with each other and we have a golden opportunity to do that. We’re going to take advantage of it,” Bosh said on ESPN’s “SportsCenter.”
Wade, 28, said it was difficult to turn down the chance to play in Chicago, where he grew up. But in the end, an opportunity to play with the 26-year-old Bosh and build a title contender in Miami with the two in the prime of their careers won out over his desire to play in his hometown, Wade said. “Now we can get on the pace of building a championship,” he said.
The Heat have only four veterans on their roster, along with four second-round draft picks, and they need to find at least five warm bodies with the remaining $12 million in cap room they have.
