CLEVELAND: LeBron James has signed his two-year contract with the Cavaliers, a team he brought back from despair to the NBA Finals in one season.
James agreed to the $47 million deal, which includes a player option for the 2016-17 season, on Thursday and he finalized the agreement on Friday shortly before hosting a private screening for a new movie in which he has a supporting role.
James’ signing comes a day before the one-year anniversary of his return to Cleveland after spending four seasons in Miami.
The 30-year-old has indicated he will play the remainder of his career with the Cavs, who went from being a lottery team to Eastern Conference champions in James’ first season back.
