Come summer, all eyes will be on LeBron James. Critics and most fans believe that the Cleveland Cavaliers star is bound to leave his team again in the offseason. No one knows where he'll eventually go. Maybe not even James himself knows where he'll end up. So someone in New York decided to help him out.
As reported by Joseph Staszewski of the New York Post, a billboard near Madison Square Garden went up, asking for James to prove that he is the King of New York, and subsequently join the Knicks.
To recall, LeBron declared himself as the King of New York via an Instagram post. He posted the photo after powering the Cavs to a 43-25 fourth-quarter comeback early in the season.

The Cavs will face the Knicks at The Garden on April 9. NYC Ads Co., the company responsible for the ad, is hoping that the King might see the billboard. Will it influence his decision? Time will tell.
Many critics believe that he's headed to the Los Angeles Lakers this summer. They have a pretty young and potent core led by head coach Luke Walton. In addition, they have enough cap space to accommodate James' financial requirement. Some also point to the Philadelphia 76ers since they already have an established line up led by Ben Simmons and Joel Embiid.
Every NBA team knows that when LeBron joins their squad, they will immediately become a contender. He did it with the Miami Heat. He did it with Cleveland. Will the Knicks be next to enjoy the King's graces?
