Rumors

LeBron James appeared on Wednesday’s episode of the “New Heights” podcast with Travis and Jason Kelce and finally opened up about the famously mysterious pick-up game he played in with Michael Jordan as a high schooler. James said the game happened in 2001, and he and Jordan played with NBA vets Antoine Walker, Penny Hardaway, Ron Artest and Michael Finley. Grainy photos from the game showing James and Jordan sharing the court have surfaced on social media over the years, but video footage of the contest has never emerged.

NBCUniversal is eyeing free-agent reporter Shams Charania, sources tell Front Office Sports. I’ve also heard Amazon is interested. The two sports media giants are poised to divide the NBA’s TV rights with incumbent ESPN starting with the 2025–2026 season. (TNT Sports, the NBA’s other longtime incumbent media partner, is suing to retain its rights.) The interest between Charania and suitors are in early stages, say sources. As with previous TV free agents Jason Kelce and Bill Belichick, he’s keeping his options wide open. “He’s talking to everyone at this point,” says one source.
