INDEPENDENCE: LeBron James is done talking about Trisatn Thompson. He may have said enough already.
James cut short a question about Thompson following Tuesday’s first practice and reiterated what he said on Monday.
“I’ve already addressed it,” James said. “I probably won’t address it again too much more. I’m optimistic both sides will get something done and he’ll be here sooner than later.”
James and Thompson share an agent in Rich Paul. Thompson was a no-show at the open of camp Tuesday because of a contract dispute that has dragged on for months. General Manager David Griffin said Tuesday there was no real update on the situation.
