Bryce Harper gives stunning guess for LeBron James’ next team

Philadelphia is a potential destination for LeBron James this summer, and one of the city’s biggest stars just weighed in on the highly touted free-agent sweepstakes.

The Phillies’ Bryce Harper was asked where he believes James will play next season during the team’s series opener against the Mets on Thursday.

“I don’t know. I think he’s going to the Cavs. I think he’s going back home to end his career there. But you never know.

“Obviously, [the Sixers] got a couple guys over there that are fun to play with. They got Jaylen Brown. You wanna come to a crazy city and have some fun? This is it,” Harper said while mic’d up during the game.

Harper is a leading figure in Philadelphia sports, so it’s only right he made a free-agent pitch for the 76ers. However, like many speculate, Harper believes the NBA’s all-time leading scorer will return to the place where it all began — Cleveland.

James discussed his free-agency decision at Fanatics Fest in New York on Thursday but remained tight-lipped on where he wants to go.

The veteran isn’t immune to the noise as fans began to voice their desired destination for James.

“Where? Where did I hear?” James said. “I heard Warriors … I heard Philly … Miami … This guy just told me to come to the Yankees.”

The 41-year-old is expected to make a decision soon, and the deal will certainly have implications for the rest of the NBA. As James weighs his options, it remains to be seen whether Harper’s prediction comes to fruition.
